Question

Is $0$a rational, irrational, natural, whole, integer or real number?

Answer 1

Check whether $0$ is a rational number, irrational, natural, whole, integer, or real number.

Rational numbers are those which can be expressed in the form of $\frac{p}{q}$ where$q\ne 0$.

So, $0$is a rational number as we can represent it as $\frac{0}{1},\frac{0}{2}$ etc.

Integers are the whole numbers that can be positive negative and zero.

So, $0$ is an integer.

Natural numbers are positive integers.

So, $0$is not a natural number.

Whole numbers are the natural numbers and zero.

So, $0$ is a whole number.

Real numbers are those which can be expressed on a real line. These are the combination of rational and irrational numbers.

So, $0$is a real number.

$0$ falls under the category of rational, whole, integer and real number.

Hence $0$ is a rational, whole, integer and real number but not a natural or irrational number.
