Which sets of numbers are closed under subtraction?
To be closed under an operation, when that operation is applied to two member of a set then the result must also be a member of the set. Thus the sets ℂ (Complex numbers), ℝ (Real Numbers), ℚ (Rational Numbers) and ℤ (integers) are closed under subtraction. ℤ+ (the positive integers), ℤ- (the negative integers) and ℕ (the natural numbers) are not closed under subtraction as subtraction can lead to a result which is not a member of the set.
Are natural numbers closed under addition?
Yes, because naturals are counting numbers, {1,2,3...} and any natural number added by another natural number has to be a natural. Think of a number line, and your adding the natural numbers. The sum has to be natural, so yes it is closed.
Under what operation is the set of positive rational numbers not closed?
Subtraction.
What operation are whole numbers closed under?

Is the set of all negative numbers closed under the operation of multiplication Explain why or why not?
No. For a set to be closed with respect to an operation, the result of applying the operation to any elements of the set also must be in the set. The set of negative numbers is not closed under multiplication because, for example (-1)*(-2)=2. In that example, we multiplied two numbers that were in the set (negative numbers) and the product was not in the set (it is a positive number). On the other hand, the set of all negative numbers is closed under the operation of addition because the sum of any two negative numbers is a negatoive number.
Under which operation are natural numbers closed?
Addition.
Is set of numbers closed under natural and subtraction?
Please clarify what set you are talking about. There are several sets of numbers. Also, "closed under..." should be followed by an operation; "natural" is not an operation.
Is Natural numbers are closed under multiplication?
Yes.natural numbers are closed under multiplication.It means when the operation is done with natural numbers in multiplication the sum of two numbers is always the natural number.
Are natural numbers closed under division?
No. Closed means that you could do the operation (division) on any two natural numbers and you would get a result in the natural numbers. Take 7/3 for example, this is obviously not a natural number.
The natural numbers are closed under division?
No, the natural numbers are not closed under division. For example, 2 and 3 are natural numbers, but 2/3 is not.

Is natural numbers are closed under multipication?
IS natural numbers are closed under multiplication? Please answer as soon as possible. Thank You!
Why is zero not closed under the operation of whole numbers?
A set can be closed or not closed, not an individual element, such as zero. Furthermore, closure depends on the operation under consideration.
Are rational numbers closed under subtraction operation?
Yes, they are.
Are natural numbers closed under addition?
Yes, because naturals are counting numbers, {1,2,3...} and any natural number added by another natural number has to be a natural. Think of a number line, and your adding the natural numbers. The sum has to be natural, so yes it is closed.
