The set of integers, often is denoted by Z.
Yes, if all of the whole numbers are positive ones.
9 belongs in the sets: -Natural number set, positive whole numbers -Integer number set, whole numbers -Rational number set, numbers that are not never ending -Real number set, basic numbers without i and that can be expressed in say amounts of apples -Complex number set, the set that contains both real and unreal numbers
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 are the set of natural or counting numbers inclding zero
The set of integers (ℤ) is the set of the positive whole numbers and their additive opposites (the negative whole numbers).
The set of counting (natural) numbers is the set of all positive integers, while the set of whole numbers is the set of all positive integers included zero.
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 positive whole numbers is not closed under subtraction! In order for a set of numbers to be closed under some operation would mean that if you take any two elements of that set and use the operation the resulting "answer" would also be in the original set.26 is a positive whole number.40 is a positive whole number.However 26-40 = -14 which is clearly not a positive whole number. So positive whole numbers are not closed under subtraction.

Natural numbers are just whole positive numbers. Since whole positive numbers can represent a distance along a line, they are a subset of real numbers.
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!
Yes, if all of the whole numbers are positive ones.
The set of integers, the set of rational numbers, the set of real numbers, the set of complex numbers, ...
The answer below is incomplete.The set of whole numbers also includes all negative integers.

The set of counting numbers is the positive integers. The set of whole numbers is the positive integers plus zero. The term "natural numbers" has been used interchangeably with both of those sets.
