Set of Numbers
• Natural Numbers: {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 . . .}
• Whole Numbers: {0, 1, 2, 3, 4 . . .}
• Integers: {. . . –3, –2, –1, 0, 1, 2, 3 . . .}
• Rational Numbers: the set of all numbers that can
be expressed as a quotient of integers, with
denominator  0.
• Irrational Numbers: nonrational numbers that
correspond to points on a number line.
• Real Numbers: all numbers that correspond to
points on a number line.

Order Property for Real Numbers
For any two real numbers a and b, a is less than b if a is to the left of
b on the number line.
• a < b means a is to the left of b on a number line.
• a > b means a is to the right of b on a number line.
a
b
a < b or also b > a
