Unfortunately, the term "whole numbers" is somewhat ambiguous - it means different things to different people.
If you mean "integers", yes, it is closed.
If you mean "positive integers" or "non-negative integers", no, it isn't.
Yes, even numbers are closed under subtraction. When you subtract one even number from another even number, the result is always an even number. This is because both even numbers can be expressed as 2n and 2m (where n and m are integers), and their difference, 2n - 2m, can be factored as 2(n - m), which is also even.
Yes. The entire set of natural numbers is closed under addition (but not subtraction). So are the even numbers (but not the odd numbers), the multiples of 3, of 4, etc.
No, the set of odd numbers is not closed under subtraction. For example, if you subtract one odd number from another odd number, such as 5 - 3, the result is 2, which is an even number and not part of the set of odd numbers. Therefore, the subtraction of odd numbers can yield results that fall outside the set.
The numbers are not closed under addition because whole numbers, even integers, and natural numbers are closed.
Yes, it is closed. This means that if you multiply two even number, you again get a number within the set of even numbers.
Subtraction: Yes. Division: No. 2/4 = is not an integer, let alone an even integer.
The set of odd whole numbers is neither open nor closed in the context of standard topology on the real numbers. In topology, a set is considered closed if it contains all its limit points; however, odd whole numbers do not include any even numbers or fractions, which means they do not contain limit points that approach them. Additionally, they are not an open set because there are no neighborhoods around any of the odd whole numbers that entirely consist of odd whole numbers.
For a set to be closed under an operation, doing the operations on any two members of the set must result in another member of the set.The set of even natural numbers is {2, 4, 6, ...}.When two even numbers are added, the result is also an even number.Adding two positive numbers results in a larger positive number.Thus, adding two even natural numbers together results in another even natural number and so is closed.The set of even whole numbers is {..., -6, -4, -2, 0, 2, 4, 6, ...}.When two even numbers are added, the result is also an even number.It does not matter which combination of positive and negative whole numbers are added as all positive and negative whole numbers (including zero) are in the set. Thus it is also closed under addition.
It depends on what the number is closed on. For example, even numbers are closed on addition. In other words for any two even numbers that are added, the sum is an even number. Numbers are closed if something applies to all the numbers included within a set. The set above includes only even numbers.
The set of even numbers is closed under addition, the set of odd numbers is not.
