Question

State Whether The Following Statement Is True Or False. Every Integer Is A Whole Number.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

Define whole numbers and natural numbers.

• Whole Numbers are the Natural Numbers including ‘zero’. Whole numbers are represented by the symbol W.

Example:$0,1,2,3,.....$

• The collection of Whole Numbers with negative values of the Natural Numbers is known as integers. Integers do not include fraction numbers.

Example:$....,-4,-3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3,4,...$

Thus every whole number is an integer but every Integer is not a whole number.

Hence the given statement is false.
