1. The subsets of the real numbers can be represented in a Venn diagram as shown. To which subsets of real numbers does 12 belong?
A) Integers and Whole Numbers only B) Rational Numbers, Integers, and Whole Numbers C) Rational Numbers and Integers only D) Irrational Numbers, Integers, and Whole Numbers
2. Which statement BEST describes the relationship between whole numbers and natural numbers shown in the diagram?
A) The diagram shows that whole numbers are a subset of natural numbers, because all whole numbers are natural numbers. B) The diagram shows that natural numbers are a subset of whole numbers, because all natural numbers are whole numbers. C) The diagram shows that whole numbers are a subset of natural numbers, because some whole numbers are not natural numbers. D) The diagram shows that natural numbers are a subset of whole numbers, because all whole numbers and natural numbers have no numbers in common.
Every integer is a rational number but a rational number does NOT need to be a integer, therefore meaning that integers are a subset of rational numbers. Not the other way around.
