Question

Every whole number is an integer. True or False? Why?

Answer 1

Every whole number is an integer ,because integers include both negative and positive numbers.As whole numbers are positive it is a part of an integer
   So every whole number is an integer but every integer is not a whole number.

Answer 2

Answer:

Every whole number is $an$ integer is $a$ true statement.

Step-by-step explanation:

Whole numbers:-

• All natural numbers together with zero form the whole numbers.
• Mathematically, the set N∪{0} is called the set of whole numbers.
• The symbol W is used to denote the set of whole numbers.
• Example: 0, 1, 2, . . .

Integers:-

• All natural numbers, $0$ and the negatives of natural numbers is called the integers.

• Mathematically, the set -N∪{0}∪N is called the set of integers.
• The symbol Z or I is used to denote the set of integers.
• Example: $. . ., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, . . .$

Observe that the set of whole numbers is contained in the set of integers.

⇒ W⊂Z

We can say that every $whole$ number is an integer.

Therefore, the statement every whole number is an integer is true.
