It is the smallest number, s, such that x <= s for any element, x, of the set; and if e is any number, however small, then there is at least one element in the set such that x > (s - e) : that is, (s - e) is not an upper bound.

Is the intersection of the set of rational numbers and the set of whole numbers is the set of rational numbers?
No, it is not.
Are natural numbers the same of rational numbers?
The set of rational numbers includes the set of natural numbers but they are not the same. All natural numbers are rational, not all rational numbers are natural.
A set of numbers combining rational and irrational numbers?
The Real numbers
What is set of rational numbers union with integers?
It is the rational numbers.
Does a real number contain the set of rational numbers?
No. A real number is only one number whereas the set of rational numbers has infinitely many numbers. However, the set of real numbers does contain the set of rational numbers.
What is hierarchy of real numbers?
a real numbers computable if it is limit of an effectively converging computable sequence of a retional supremum infimum computable if it is supremum of computable of sequence of a rational numbers

Are integers in a set of rational numbers?
Yes - the set of integers is a subset of the set of rational numbers.

How are rational numbers and integal numbers related to set of real numbers?
Both rational numbers and integers are subsets of the set of real numbers.
Is the set of rational numbers finite?
No; there are infinitely many rational numbers.
How are rational number different from fractional and whole number?
The set of rational numbers is the union of the set of fractional numbers and the set of whole numbers.
What subset of the real numbers does minus 8 belong?
In mathematics, given a subset S of a totally or partially ordered set T, the supremum (sup) of S, if it exists, is the least element of T which is greater than or equal to any element of S. Consequently, the supremum is also referred to as the least upper bound (lub or LUB). If the supremum exists, it is unique. If S contains a greatest element, then that element is the supremum; otherwise, the supremum does not belong to S (or does not exist). For instance, the negative real numbers do not have a greatest element, and their supremum is 0 (which is not a negative real number).Suprema are often considered for subsets of real numbers, rational numbers, or any other well-known mathematical structure for which it is immediately clear what it means for an element to be "greater-than-or-equal-to" another element. The definition generalizes easily to the more abstract setting of order theory, where one considers arbitrary partially ordered sets.The concept of supremum coincides with the concept of least upper bound, but not with the concepts of minimal upper bound, maximal element, or greatest element. The supremum is in a precise sense dual to the concept of an infimum.add me moshi monsters elydingle1
Is the set of rational numbers is larger than the set of integers?
Yes, rational numbers are larger than integer because integers are part of rational numbers.
