The formal definition of rational numbers is: Any fractionwith whole numbers on top and bottom.
Yes.Yes. The definition of integer is basically 'a whole number.'
Yah it's a whole number... Because according to the definition of whole number. Whole numbers are those numbers who lies between 0 to infinity. And if we observe the number line. 0.9 will be between 0-1 so.. It's a Whole number....
The set of rational numbers includes all whole numbers, so SOME rational numbers will also be whole number. But not all rational numbers are whole numbers. So, as a rule, no, rational numbers are not whole numbers.
3 is a prime number because it has exactly two factors which are whole numbers: itself and one. This is the definition of a prime.
Always. By definition the Integers are the whole numbers; and the whole numbers are the integers.
By definition, ALL perfect squares are whole numbers!
Yes they have to be whole numbers. They can be negative though, but they have to be whole.
Yes, prime numbers are whole numbers, by definition.
There is no single commonly accepted definition for "whole numbers". Depending on the definition used, zero, as well as negative integers (like -1, -2, etc.) may, or may not, be considered part of the "whole numbers".
It depends on your definition of whole numbers. The classic definition of whole numbers is the set of counting numbers and zero. In this case, the set of whole numbers is not closed under subtraction, because 3-6 = -3, and -3 is not a member of this set. However, if you use whole numbers as the set of all integers, then whole numbers would be closed under subtraction.
Yes, whole numbers are counting numbers.The term whole number does not have a consistent definition.Well the most used definition is "counting numbers along with zero".
Yes, by definition all positive integers are whole numbers.
Rational numbers are numbers that can be written as a fraction. A whole number is a number with no decimals.
Yes. It has a logical definition and no members violate that definition.
Whole numbers and integers is basically the same. Actually, this depends on the exact definition used for "whole numbers"; the term "integers" is unambiguous, and thus preferable.
Nobody invented it. It was a consequence of the definition of numbers. Nobody invented it. It was a consequence of the definition of numbers. Nobody invented it. It was a consequence of the definition of numbers. Nobody invented it. It was a consequence of the definition of numbers.
