Ex 1.1 Class 9 Maths Question 4.
State whether the following statements are true or false. Give reasons for your answers.
(i) Every natural number is a whole number.
(ii) Every integer is a whole number.
(iii) Every rational number is a whole number.
Solution:
(i) True
∵ The collection of all natural numbers and 0 is called whole numbers.
(ii) False
