The set of integers I. I = {..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ...}
An integer is a member of the set of positive whole numbers {1, 2, 3, . . . }, negative whole numbers {-1, -2, -3, . . . }, and zero {0}.
For example:* The set of real numbers, excluding zero * The set of rational numbers, excluding zero * The set of complex numbers, excluding zero You can also come up with other sets, for example: * The set {1} * The set of all powers of 2, with an integer exponent, so {... 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, ...}
First think about how they label hat sizes. Example sizes can be 10, 10 1/4, 10 1/2, 11, etc. What set of numbers do these fall in? HInt: it's one of these: Natural Numbers: 1, 2, 3, 4, ... Whole numbers: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, ... Integers: ..., -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ... Rational: Any number that can be written as a fraction
The mathematically correct answer is: any set that contains it. For example, it belongs to the set of all numbers between -3 and +2, the set {0, -3, 8/13, sqrt(97), pi}, the set {0}, the set of the roots of x3 - x2 + x = 0, the set of all integers, the set of all rational numbers, the set of all real numbers, the set of all complex numbers.

No, zero is a whole number, but not a natural number.The natural numbers are the set {0, 1, 2, 3, ...} (or the set {1, 2, 3, ...})The whole numbers are the set {..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ...}The set of whole numbers has twice as many members as the set of natural numbers, so the answer to your question is NO.
It is the set of integers.
A finite set of rational numbers.
Integers are a set of numbers including natural numbers (1, 2, 3...) their opposites (-1, -2, -3...) and 0.
It is the infinite set {3, 2, 1, 0, -1, -2, -3, -4, -5, ...}
Answer = 2/7 * 3 = 6/7Notes:Whole numbers are the set of numbers {0, 1, 2, ...}
-1, 0, 1, 2
Neither the sets of negative and positive integers (-1,-2,-3-,4... or 1,2,3,4...) contain zero (0). The set of natural numbers (... -4,-3,-2,-1,0,1,23,4...) does
An integer is a member of the set of positive whole numbers {1, 2, 3, . . . }, negative whole numbers {-1, -2, -3, . . . }, and zero {0}.
That refers to the set of numbers that starts with:0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, etc.This is the set of whole numbers.
The set of natural numbers or counting numbers N is a subset of the set of real numbers R. N = {1, 2, 3, ...) R = {..., -2, -1, -0.5, 0, 1, √2, 2, 3, π, ...}
