What is four irrational numbers closest to 6 on the number line?
Irrational numbers are infinitely dense. Between any two numbers, there are infinitely many irrational numbers. So if it was claimed that some irrational, x, was the closest irrational to 6, it is possible to find an infinite number of irrationals between 6 and x. Each one of these infinite number of irrationals would be closer to 6 than x. So the search for the nearest irrational must fail.
What is the order from largest to smallest for whole number integers rational numbers natural number irrational numbers and real 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.
Tell whether each number is rational?
Rational numbers include integers, and any number you can write as a fraction (with integers in the numerator and denominator). Most numbers that include roots (square roots, cubic roots, etc.) are irrational - if you take the square root of any integer except a perfect square, for example, you'll get an irrational number. Expressions involving pi and e are also usuallyirrational.
Is 5 a real number rational number irrational number integer whole number natural number?
It is not an irrational number. Otherwise, it belongs to each of the sets listed above.
How many numbers are there?
There are an infinite number of integers, fractions, decimals, and irrational numbers. (Each of the types of numbers also has an infinite series.) Arabic numbers are formed using 10 symbols (9 integers and zero) : 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9, and 0. All non-variables are represented using these symbols.numbers do not end
