A natural number is a number which is positive and a whole number. whole numbers can be also negative.
The only difference is that whole numbers include 0 (zero), while natural numbers start with 1 (one). That's it!
What is the difference between integers and whole numbers?
natural numbers are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.......... whole numbers are natural numbers including 0, i.e., 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5..........
whole numbers are 0,1,2,3,4,5,6 etc. and natural numbers are 1,2,3,4,5,6 etc. so the only difference is that in natural numbers there is no 0
natural numbers are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5..........whole numbers are natural numbers including 0, i.e., 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5..........
All negative integers are whole numbers but not natural numbers. Mathematicians are not agreed about whether 0 is a natural number or not.
A "difference between" requires two things: there is only one - whole numbers - in the question.
A natural number is a positive counting number, ie, 0 1 2 3 4. -1 -2 -3 and -4 are whole numbers but cannot be natural numbers as they are negative.
No. Natural numbers are a subset of whole numbers. Negative numbers are whole numbers but not natural.
If N is the set of natural numbers, and the set of whole numbers (integers) is Z, you should be aware that Z also includes negatives and zero, whereas N does not include either of these.
no . but all natural numbers are whole numbers
