Real
Numbers
When we want to treat a
collection of similar but distinct
objects as a whole, we use the
idea of a set.
S = {4, 5, 6}
The numbers 4, 5, and 6 are
called elements.
The order in which you list
elements in a set is not relevant.
If a set has no elements, it is
called the empty set or null set.
We do not list an element more
than once, because the
elements of a set are distinct.
Classification of Real

Natural Numbers
–N

Whole Numbers – W
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, …
Integers – I

Rational Numbers
Any number that can be written
in the form of a fraction.
64, 0.72, 2.914, 36
Irrational Numbers
Any number that neither
terminates nor repeats.

Approximations
Truncation
Drop all the digits that follow the
specified final digit in the decimal.
Rounding
Identify the specified final digit in the
decimal. If the next digit is 5 or more,
add 1 to the final digit. Otherwise
leave the number as it appears.
Approximate 24.7486 to 3
decimal places by both
truncating and rounding.
Truncating: 24.748
Rounding: 24.749
