The intersection of integers and rational numbers is the set of integers. Integers are whole numbers that can be positive, negative, or zero, while rational numbers are numbers that can be expressed as a ratio of two integers. Since all integers can be expressed as a ratio of the integer itself and 1, they are a subset of rational numbers, making their intersection the set of integers.

What is the intersection between rational numbers and natural numbers?
It is the set of natural numbers.
Name the sets of numbers to which negative 10 belongs?
Of the "standard sets" -10 belongs to: ℤ⁻ (the negative integers) ℤ (the integers) ℚ⁻ (the negative rational numbers) ℚ (the rational numbers) ℝ⁻ (the negative real numbers) ℝ (the real numbers) ℂ (the complex numbers) (as ℤ ⊂ ℚ ⊂ ℝ ⊂ ℂ). Other sets are possible, eg the even numbers.
What is the intersection of the rational numbers and the irrational numbers?
Some would say that there is no intersection. However, if the set of irrational numbers is considered as a group then closure requires rationals to be a proper subset of the irrationals.
Is the intersection of two infinite sets always an infinite set?
No. It can be infinite, finite or null. The set of odd integers is infinite, the set of even integers is infinite. Their intersection is void, or the null set.
Is the set of integers closed under subtraction?
yes, because an integer is a positive or negative, rational, whole number. when you subject integers, you still get a positive or negative, rational, whole number, which means that under the closure property of real numbers, the set of integers is closed under subtraction.
