Since, 0.5 being the decimal number, it is not considered to be a whole number. However, it can be converted to a whole number by rounding it off to the nearest whole number. 0.5 rounded off to the nearest whole number is 1.
No, -0.5 is less than -1. because…. There's a lot difference between negative and positive integer. 0>-1>-2>-3>-4>-5 and so on….
However, we can also have positive and negative fractions and decimals. These positive and negative fractions and decimals are not members of the set of integers. They are rational numbers and you will work more with them next year.
Positive integers are all the whole numbers greater than zero: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ... . Negative integers are all the opposites of these whole numbers: -1, -2, -3, -4, -5, …. ... If an integer is greater than zero, we say that its sign is positive. If an integer is less than zero, we say that its sign is negative.
An integer (pronounced IN-tuh-jer) is a whole number (not a fractional number) that can be positive, negative, or zero. Examples of integers are: -5, 1, 5, 8, 97, and 3,043. Examples of numbers that are not integers are: -1.43, 1 3/4, 3.14, .09, and 5,643.1.
Yes 0.1 is a positive Real number. If you can represent it on a number line, it is a Real number. If it is on the right of zero, it is a positive Real number. If it is on the left of zero, it is a negative Real number.
Here, the answer to above question is YES negative decimals numbers are rational numbers as rational number include all the integers both positive as well as negative integer, decimal as well as fraction because decimal can be written as fraction.
Therefore, whole numbers can't be negative (0, 1, 2, 3...). Notice that 0 cannot be negative.
To check whether a decimal is greater than or smaller than the other decimal, we first convert them into like fractions then compare. Therefore,0.5 is greater than 0.05. Therefore,0.7 is greater than 0.5.
The set of negative integers start from -1 up to negative infinity where the largest negative integer is -1 and the smallest negative number occurs at negative infinity (i.e., does not exist). Therefore, the smallest negative number does not exist.
8. What is the smallest negative integer? Explain. There is no “smallest negative integer.” You can have an infinite number of negative numbers.
Answer: 0.5 as a fraction is equal to 1/2
As a number of digits is one, multiply and divide the number with 10 raised to power 1.
The number 0.5 is a decimal that is equivalent to 1/2. It cannot be written as a whole number because it represents a part of a whole. You can write 0.5 as the fraction 5/10 or as the ratio 5:10.
One half is a rational number, equal to the quotient of the first two non-zero integers, one over two. It has two different decimal expansions, the familiar 0.5 and the recurring 0.4999...
Negative numbers are numbers that have a minus sign as a prefix. They can be integers, decimals, or fractions. For example, -4, -15, -4/5, -0.5 are termed as negative numbers. Observe the figure given below which shows how negative numbers are placed on a number line.
-1 is the greatest negative integer. In a number line, the numbers to the right from 0 (zero) are the positive integers. And, the numbers left to 0 (zero) are the negative integers.
To convert it into a whole number, it needs to be rounded off to the nearest whole number. Since, the digit after decimal is equal to 5, hence, it will be rounded up to the next whole number which is 1. Hence, 0.5 as a whole number will be 1.
Natural numbers are the set of positive integers, from 1 to ∞ , but it doesn't include fractional and decimal numbers.
Rational numbers include all the positive integers (Non-negative integers), negative integers, and fractions or decimals with repeating digits after the decimal point such as 2/3,4/9,0.5,0.67……. etc. A rational number can be expressed as p/q, where q ≠0.
“-1” is a “Negative” value making it lesser than “0.1” (in all possible ways) .
In this number line as we can see - 1 is behind 0 so it(-1) will also be behind 0.1.
