Question

All integers are whole numbers (True/False).

Answer 1

Answer:-

The Above Statement that "All integers are whole numbers" Is False.

Explanation:-

Let Us First Understand The Meaning Of Whole Number And Integers:-

• Whole Number:- Whole Numbers are the numbers which includes all positive integer along with zeores but the number should no be a part of fraction I.e. Should not be in decimal.

For Example:- 0, 1, 5, 9, 100 etc.

# Note:- 0.25, 1.25, 1.003, 1.2 etc. are not whole numbers.

• Integers:- These are the all positive and negative numbers also like in the case of whole numbers the integers should also not be a part of fraction.

For Example:- 0, -1, 1, 2, -2 etc.

#Note:- Numbers like 0.2, -0.2 are not integers.

Clearly,

• From above definitions we can say that all whole numbers are integers but all integers are not whole numbers.

• For Example 2 is a whole number and also an integer, but -2 is an integer but not whole number.

• But the above statement is stating that all integers are whole numbers which is false as in the above example you can see that -2 is an integer but not a whole number.

• Therefore All Integers Are Not Whole Numbers But All Whole Numbers Are Integers.
