What does it mean for two nonzero whole numbers to be relatively prime?
It means they have no common factors. This term is really only useful for integers, preferably positive integers.
The counting numbers are also known as the whole numbers?
This may or may not be true. The set of "counting numbers" may either be defined as all positive integers (1, 2, 3, 4...) or as all non-negative integers (0, 1, 2, 3, 4...). Similarly, the set of "whole numbers" may be defined as all positive integers, all non-negative integers, or as all integers (...-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3...). It all depends on the definition given for each term.
What is the sum of the first 100 positive even integers?
use this formula: S=(N/2)(F+L) S= the sum of the first 100 positive even integers N= the number of terms F= first term L=last term Since we are using the first 100 positive integers we will replace "N" with 100. so it will look like this : S=(100/2)(F+L) Next we must substitute the "F" with the first positive term which is the number 2. So now it looks like this: S=(100/2)(2+L) We use the number 2 because our positive integers are 2,4,6,8,10,12...... you get the picture. Now we must substitute the "L" with the last positive term which is 200. As you probably guessed it will look like this: S=(100/2)(2+200) We use the number 200 because it is the last positive even integer. If we used 202 then that would have meant we used the 101th positive even integer and we don't want to do that. == == We should solve the numbers inside the parenthesis first. S=(100/2)(2+200) 100 divided by 2 = 50 So: S=50(2+200) 2+200=202 That means: S=50(202) 50 x 202 = 10,100 Finally: S=10,100 There you go! Wasn't that easy? Note: This formula only works if you are looking for the sum of the first 100 positive or negative, even or odd integers. It sucks cause this formula is the Bomb right? Oh well
What is the smallest whole number in math?
The term whole number is used by various authors to mean either: * the nonnegative integers (0, 1, 2, 3, ...) * the positive integers (1, 2, 3, ...) * all integers (..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ...) So, depending on the definition used in the text you are using, it would either be* 0 * 1 * negative infinity
What is the collective term for plus minus division and multiplication signs?

What is the other term for positive integers?
Absolute value * * * * * Counting numbers.
Math term for integers?
Integer is a mathematical term to define the set of whole numbers both positive and negative
What do you call a group of echidnas?
There's no collective term for a group of echidnas.
What does it mean for two nonzero whole numbers to be relatively prime?
It means they have no common factors. This term is really only useful for integers, preferably positive integers.
All whole numbers are integers?
all number can be negative or positive. :) The term "whole numbers" is ambiguous; sometimes it is used for integers, sometimes only for non-negative integers. It is better to use the more precise terms "integers", "positive integers", "non-negative integers", depending on what you want to say. it is also false if your looking for this answer caue it could be like 0.3,0.5 there not whole numbers
Is subtraction of even whole numbers closed?
Unfortunately, the term "whole numbers" is somewhat ambiguous - it means different things to different people. If you mean "integers", yes, it is closed. If you mean "positive integers" or "non-negative integers", no, it isn't.
Are natural numbers counting numbers and positive numbers different names for the same set of numbers?
Natural numbers are the same as counting numbers, but the term positive numbers means something else. Natural or counting numbers are positive integers, but the category of positive numbers includes both integers and fractions, as long as they are greater than zero.
What is collective term for forests?
Forests, is the collective term for groups of treed vegetation.
What do integers allow you to do that whole numbers do not?
The term "whole numbers" is ambiguous; it may refer either to integers, or only to positive integers (perhaps including zero). The set of integers is closed under subtraction, that means, you can subtract any number from any other number. This is not possible in the set of counting numbers (non-negative integers).
Is 12 whole number?
Yes. Whole numbers, or integers, include both positive and negative numbers; any number that has no decimals or fractional part. Actually, the term "whole number" is used in different ways by different people; some use it only for positive (or non-negative) integers; so it is probably safer to use the term "integer" or "positive integer", to clarify your intended meaning, and avoid the term "whole number" entirely.
What is a nonzero whole number that can be evenly divided into that number?
Any non-zero whole number can be evenly divided into itself. If n is a whole number, n/n = 1. In fact, 0 is the only number, whole or not, for which this is not true. Additionally, 'whole number' is a vague term. It can refer to non-zero positive integers, positive integers including zero, or all integers depending entirely on the meaning of the person using the term.
