Question

Which set of numbers is the most reasonable to describe the number of desks in a classroom?


irrational numbers


rational numbers


whole numbers


integers

Answer 1

All right, so to answer this question, you'll need to know what each of these terms mean.

Irrational numbers are numbers that can't be expressed using a fraction.

Rational numbers, on the other hand, can.

Whole numbers are the basic numbers we know, like 1, 23, 75. Just numbers.
While irrational and rational numbers never are shown as a whole number.

And Integers just sums it up as a number that can be written without a fractional component
