The answer is given below :
The set of Natural numbers
= |N
= { 1, 2, 3, ... }
The set of integers
= Z
= { - infinity, ..., - 2, - 1, 0, 1, 2, ..., + infinity }
It is easily noticed that all the elements of the Natural numbers' set are in set of Integers.
Thus, the set of Natural numbers is a subset of the set of Integers, i.e.,
|N subset of Z.
One more thing is to be noticed that 0 and negative numbers (integes) are not Natural numbers.
Thank you for your question.
