The question is not well-posed, in that the term "bigger" can be understood in different ways.
If A is a subset of B, we can call B bigger than A.
However, in set theory, the cardinality of a set is defined as the class of sets with the "same number" of elements:
Two sets A and B have the same cardinality if there exists a bijection f:A->B.
Theorem: If there is an injection i:A->B and an injection i:B->A, then there is a bijection f:A->B. Not proved here.
The set of integers and the set of rational numbers can be mapped as follows.
Since the natural numbers are a subset of the rational numbers by i:N->R: n-> n/1, we have half of the proof.
Now, order the rational numbers as follows:
- assign to each rational number p/q (p,q > 0) the point (p,q) in the plane.
Next, consider that you can assign a natural number to each rational number by walking through them in diagonals:
(1,1) -> 1; (2,1) -> 2; (1,2) -> 3; (3,1) ->4 ; (2,2) ->5; (1,3) -> 6; (4,1) -> 7; (3,2) -> 8, (2,3) -> 9; (1,4) -> 10, etc. (make a drawing).
It is clear that in this way you can assign a unique natural number to EACH rational number. This means that you have an injection from the rational numbers to the natural numbers.
Now you have two injections, from the natural numbers to the rational numbers and from the rational numbers to the natural numbers.
By the theorem, there is a bijection, which means that the natural numbers and the rational numbers have the same cardinality. Neither of them is "bigger" than the other in this sense. The cardinality of these two sets is called Aleph-zero, and the sets are also called countable (because the elements can be counted with the natural numbers).
There are infinitely many rational numbers, but there are infinitely more irrational numbers than rational numbers. There are more irrational numbers between 0 and 1 than there are rational numbers period.I was kind of guessing what you were trying to ask, so let me explain some background in case that wasn't quite it. Rational numbers are those that are representable as the ratio of two integers: 2/3, 355/113, 5 (=5/1). Irrational numbers are those that cannot be represented exactly by the ratio of two integers; some familiar irrational numbers are pi and the square root of 2. There are an infinite number of integers, and therefore an infinite number of rational numbers, but the two infinities are of the same order of magnitude (called a countable or listable infinity). The mathematical designation for the kind of infinity that the integers have is called aleph-null. There are also an infinite number of irrational numbers, but it's a "bigger" kind of infinity called C or the "power of the continuum." There's a relationship between aleph-null and a larger infinity called aleph-one. It's not known whether C and aleph-one are the same or not, and if they're not, we don't know which is bigger.
Since neither of these numbers has a decimal point, it can only be inferred that you are referring to integers - of which 788 is larger than 787.
It is an equation which is insoluble in its domain. However, it may be soluble in a bigger domain.For example, x2 = 2 has no solution in the domain of rational numbers but it does in the real numbers, orx2 = -2 has no solution in the domain of real number but it does in imaginary numbers.
For me, the biggest set of numbers is the set of REAL numbers. That includes every single number - positive, negative, whole, fraction, decimal, rational, irrational, numbers like pi and 'e' - except for IMAGINARY numbers. The set of REAL numbers is infinitely large and you can't get any bigger than that.
i know this might sound funny but the truth is that it is called google numbers
Such numbers cannot be ordered in the manner suggested by the question because: For every whole number there are integers, rational numbers, natural numbers, irrational numbers and real numbers that are bigger. For every integer there are whole numbers, rational numbers, natural numbers, irrational numbers and real numbers that are bigger. For every rational number there are whole numbers, integers, natural numbers, irrational numbers and real numbers that are bigger. For every natural number there are whole numbers, integers, rational numbers, irrational numbers and real numbers that are bigger. For every irrational number there are whole numbers, integers, rational numbers, natural numbers and real numbers that are bigger. For every real number there are whole numbers, integers, rational numbers, natural numbers and irrational numbers that are bigger. Each of these kinds of numbers form an infinite sets but the size of the sets is not the same. Georg Cantor showed that the cardinality of whole numbers, integers, rational numbers and natural number is the same order of infinity: aleph-null. The cardinality of irrational numbers and real number is a bigger order of infinity: aleph-one.

Subtract rational number A from the other rational number B. If the answer is> 0 then B is bigger than A= 0 then B is equal to A< 0 then B is smaller than A
100 is bigger and it is a rational number.
An integer is any whole number.
Infinitely rarely, a real number is also a rational number. (There are an infinite number of rational numbers, but there are a "much bigger infinity" of real numbers.)
Yes, natural numbers are the set of "counting numbers" - integers bigger than zero. Hence they are all real numbers.
Of course not. The square root of 2 is less than 3, and (pi) is less than 4 .
The magnitude of the answer is the difference between the two numbers and it has the sign of the integer which has the bigger magnitude. I guess so?
Since neither of these numbers has a decimal point, it can only be inferred that you are referring to integers - of which 788 is larger than 787.
Find the difference between the two numbers and attach the sign that belongs to the number with the bigger absolute value.
"Integers" are all the whole numbers, including the negative ones. Add any two of them together and, as long as the bigger one is negative, the sum is negative.
