1.8 The Real Number System
Created by ?
Edited by Eddie Judd, Crestwood Middle School
Standard: NS4
Real Numbers
• Real numbers consist of all the rational
and irrational numbers.
• The rational numbers have many subsets:
– Natural Numbers
– Whole Numbers
– Integers
Natural Numbers
• Natural numbers are the set of counting
numbers.
{1, 2, 3,…}
Whole Numbers
• Whole numbers are the set of numbers that
include 0 plus the set of natural numbers.
{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,…}
Integers
• Integers are the set of whole numbers and
their opposites.
{…,-3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3,…}
Rational Numbers
• Rational numbers are any numbers that can
be expressed as a ratio (in the form of ,
where a and b are integers, and b ≠ 0.
• They can always be expressed by using
terminating decimals or repeating decimals.
b
a
Terminating Decimals
• Terminating decimals are decimals that
contain a finite number of digits.
• Examples:
36.8
0.125
4.5
Repeating Decimals
• Repeating decimals are decimals that contain a infinite
number of digits.
• Examples:
 0.333…

 7.689689…
FYI…The line above the decimals indicate that number
repeats.

Irrational Numbers
• Irrational numbers are any numbers that cannot be
expressed as a ratio,
• They are expressed as non-terminating, non-
repeating decimals; decimals that go on forever
without repeating a pattern.
• Examples of irrational numbers:
– 0.34334333433334…
– 45.86745893…
– (pi)

Other Vocabulary Associated with
the Real Number System
• …(ellipsis)—continues without end
• { } (set)—a collection of objects or
numbers. Sets are notated by using
braces { }.
• Finite—having bounds; limited
• Infinite—having no boundaries or limits
• Venn diagram—a diagram consisting of
circles or squares to show relationships of
a set of data.

Rational Numbers
Example
• Classify all the following numbers as natural, whole, integer,
rational, or irrational. List all that apply.
a. 117
b. 0
c. -12.64039…
d. -½
e. 6.36
f.
g. -3
h.

To show how these number are classified, use the Venn
diagram. Place the number where it belongs on the Venn
diagram.

Solution
• Now that all the numbers are placed where they belong in
the Venn diagram, you can classify each number:
– 117 is a natural number, a whole number, an integer,
and a rational number.
– is a rational number.
– 0 is a whole number, an integer, and a rational
number.
– -12.64039… is an irrational number.
– -3 is an integer and a rational number.
– 6.36 is a rational number.
– is an irrational number.
– is a rational number.

FYI…For Your Information
• When taking the square root of any
number that is not a perfect square, the
resulting decimal will be non-terminating
and non-repeating. Therefore, those
numbers are always irrational.
