  • 2. 

    7 is what type of number(s)?

    • A.

      Integer

    • B.

      Whole

    • C.

      Natural

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Integer
    B. Whole
    C. Natural
    Explanation
    The number 7 is an integer because it is a whole number without any fractional or decimal part. It is also a whole number because it is not a fraction or a decimal, and it is a natural number because it is a positive whole number. Therefore, the number 7 falls into all three categories: integer, whole, and natural.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    True or False?  The whole numbers are 0, 1, 2, 3, ...

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is true because whole numbers include all the positive integers starting from 0 and continue indefinitely. Therefore, the whole numbers include 0, 1, 2, 3, and so on.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    Which of the following are whole numbers?

    • A.

      -4

    • B.

      0

    • C.

      4

    • D.

      8.6

    • E.
    Correct Answer(s)
    B. 0
    C. 4
    Explanation
    Whole numbers are a set of numbers that include all the positive integers (including zero) and their corresponding negatives. In this question, the numbers -4, 0, 4 are all integers, and 8.6 is not. However, the number 0 is the only whole number in the list since it is an integer and its negative counterpart is also included in the set of whole numbers. Therefore, the correct answer is 0 and 4 is incorrect.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    Which of the following are natural numbers?

    • A.
    • B.

      -2

    • C.

      0

    • D.

      10

    • E.

      0.5

    Correct Answer
    D. 10
    Explanation
    Natural numbers are positive integers greater than zero. In this case, the number 10 is the only option that fits this criteria. -2 is a negative integer, 0 is not positive, and 0.5 is a decimal. Therefore, the only natural number among the given options is 10.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    True or False?  The integers are ...-2, -1, 0, 1, 2, ...

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The given statement is true because the integers include both positive and negative whole numbers, as well as zero. The pattern of integers extends infinitely in both the positive and negative direction, with numbers increasing or decreasing by 1 each time. Therefore, the integers are indeed -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, and so on.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    True or False?  The Natural numbers are   1, 2, 3, ...

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The natural numbers are a set of positive integers starting from 1 and continuing indefinitely. They do not include zero or negative numbers. Therefore, the statement "The natural numbers are 1, 2, 3, ..." is true.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    -4 is what type of number(s)?

    • A.

      Integer

    • B.

      Whole

    • C.

      Natural

    Correct Answer
    A. Integer
    Explanation
    The number -4 is an integer because it is a whole number that can be positive or negative, including zero. Integers are a set of numbers that do not have any fractional or decimal parts.

    Rate this question:

      Whole

    • C.

      Natural

    Correct Answer(s)
    A. Integer
    B. Whole
    Explanation
    The number 0 is considered an integer because it is a whole number that can be both positive and negative. It is also considered a whole number because it is not a fraction or a decimal. However, it is not considered a natural number because natural numbers start from 1 and do not include zero.
