Well, honey, the intersection of the set of whole numbers and the set of natural numbers is the set of all positive integers. In other words, it's the numbers that are both whole and natural, which means it starts from 1 and goes on forever. So, there you have it, the sassy math lesson of the day!
any member of a set of positive whole numbers (1.2.3.) negative whole numbers (-1,-2,-3, ) and zero(0).
Integer is a mathematical term to define the set of whole numbers both positive and negative
The set of integers (ℤ) is the set of the positive whole numbers and their additive opposites (the negative whole numbers).
The set of integers includes the set of whole numbers. The set of rational numbers includes the sets of whole numbers and integers.
Actually the set of integers is the same as the set of whole numbers since the whole numbers include negative whole numbers and zero.
The set of integers is the same as the set of whole numbers.
The set of natural numbers is a subset of the set of whole numbers. The set of whole numbers is a subset of the set of integers. So the set of integers is the largest of these three sets.
Zero (0) is in the set of whole number. The only difference between the set of whole numbers and counting numbers is that the whole numbers contain zero. {0,1,2,3...}
Apart from zero (which is its own opposite), the opposites of whole numbers are also whole numbers. You have the set of whole numbers which is also known as the set of integers.
If you mean larger by "the set of whole numbers strictly contains the set of natural numbers", then yes, but if you mean "the set of whole numbers has a larger cardinality (size) than the set of natural numbers", then no, they have the same size.
Whole numbers and natural numbers are the exact same, except that whole numbers include zero
