what is the difference between natural number 10 and real number 10?

Answer 1

The issue isn't about comparing "the natural number 10" and the real number 10"; it's about what 10 *IS*. 10 *is* a real number AND a natural number.

The set of natural numbers are {1, 2, 3, ....}
The set of whole numbers are {0, 1, 2, 3, .... }
The set of integers are { ... -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ... }
The set of rational numbers are { m/n, where n is non-zero and m and n are integers }
The set of irrational numbers are those whose decimals neither terminate nor repeat.
The set of real numbers consist of the set of rational and irrational numbers.

As you can see, 10 falls in the category of
- natural number
- whole number
- integer
- rational number
- real number

Answer 2

natural number 10 and real number 10 are different .. natural number 10 does not give any information about (positive and negative sign ) and real number 10 is +10...

so if you are going to represent the two on computer then you may require to store the sign for real number and it is not required in natural number.

More over if you are asking just for fun then i guess there is no difference is natural 10 dallers and real 10 dollers

Answer 3

Nothing. They are the same number. But the 'natural' number 10 is an integer while the 'real' number 10 is an integer embedded in the reals.

Answer 4

same, no difference except that natural 10 belongs to set N and real 10 belongs to set R.
Similarly natural 3 and integer 3 are same,
and so are other examples.

Answer 5

a real number includes any number, whereas a natural number is only positive numbers.

Answer 6
