Example Question #33 : Integers And Types Of Numbers
What kind of number is ?
I. rational
II. irrational
III. integer
IV. imaginary
V. composite
III and V only
II, IV
I, III, V
I and III only
II only
I, III, V
Even though it's a radical, we can simplify.
Check the answer.
The answer is .
is an integer and a composite number with factors of . Furthermore, it can be expressed a rational number .
Thus, the final answer is I, III, V.
Example Question #971 : Pre Algebra
Which is a square number?
Square numbers have one factor. If that factor is multiplied by itself, then the number becomes a perfect square. The only number in the selection that meets this requirement is . We can multiply twice to get the perfect square .
Example Question #972 : Pre Algebra
What are odd numbers?
Integers that have a ones digit that ends in , , , , or
Integers that have a ones digit that ends in , , , , or
Integers that have a ones digit that ends in , , , , or
All the digits of the integer must have , , , , or
Integers that have a ones digit that ends in , , , , or
Integers that have a ones digit that ends in , , , , or
In order to determine if a number is odd, we will check the ones digit. It must contain , , , , or . The answer is integers that have a ones digit that ends in , , , , or .
Example Question #34 : Integers And Types Of Numbers
What number is found in the set of whole numbers but not in the set of natural numbers?
Whole numbers start from and include all positive integers. On the other hand, natural numbers are all positive integers that we can count starting from . The only difference is that is found in whole numbers but not in the natural numbers series. Thus, is the correct answer.
Example Question #37 : Integers And Types Of Numbers
Which of the following is an odd number?
I.
II.
III.
IV.
V.
II, III, V
II, V
I, III, IV
I, III, V
II, III, IV
II, III, V
Odd numbers are integers that have a ones digit that ends in , , , , or . Choices II, III, V are odd numbers because they have a ones digit of , , and respectively.
Example Question #973 : Pre Algebra
What is the product of two nonidentical prime numbers?
Composite number
Zero
Cubic number
Square number
Prime number
Composite number
When you take two prime numbers, you are creating a composite number. A compositie number has at least one more factor than one and itself. Since you multiply two prime numbers, you are increasing the factors of the new number.
Example Question #974 : Pre Algebra
What do you get when you divide two negative integers?
One
Irrational number
Integers
Rational numbers
Zero
Rational numbers
For example, we can take the negative integers and . When we divide , we get an answer of . This is an integer and a rational number. However, if we reverse it , we get an answer of . This is not an integer but it is a rational number. Integers can be rational numbers as they are expressed as any number over one. Futhermore, rational numbers are defined as the expression of any quotient or fraction possessing a non-zero denominator. Thus, our answer is rational numbers.
Example Question #40 : Integers And Types Of Numbers
Given the following set of numbers:
Which numbers in the set are whole numbers?
A whole number is any number without a fraction or decimal, but negative numbers are NOT whole numbers. Therefore, the only correct choices from this set are and , which are neither negative nor have decimals.
Example Question #975 : Pre Algebra
can correctly be considered all of the following types of number, EXCEPT:
Integer
Rational
Real
Negative
Natural
Natural
Negative numbers are integers, they are real, and they are rational. Natural numbers, by definition, are whole and non-negative numbers. Therefore, is NOT a natural number.
Example Question #976 : Pre Algebra
Which if the following is not an integer?
None of the other answers.
None of the other answers.
Integers comprise negative numbers as well as positive numbers. Even zero is an integer. The caveat of integers is that they must be able to be expressed without fractions. They have to be whole. While is a fraction, it is equivalent to 1, which is a whole number.
