CLASSIFYING NUMBERS

6th grade Math


Number Types
 Whole
 Integers
 Rational Numbers

 Which is which?
 How can you tell them apart?
Whole Numbers
 The Natural (Counting) Numbers including 0.
 Ex: 0,1,2,3,4,5……
Integers
 Zero plus positive whole numbers and their
opposites.
 -3,-2,-1,0,1,2,3…….

 How are integers and whole numbers related?

19
Whole Numbers = Integers
 All whole numbers are integers because integers
include both positive and negative whole numbers.

Integers

Whole
Numbers
Rational Numbers
 Numbers that can be written as a fraction a/b.
 Numbers that have terminating decimals.
 Numbers that have repeating decimals.

 4.375 = 4 375/1000 = 4 3/8


 2.5 = 2 5/10 = 2 1/2

 0.3 repeating = 3/9 = 1/3

 How do rational numbers relate?


Rational Numbers = Integers = Whole
Numbers
 All rational numbers are integers and whole
numbers because you can make them into a ratio (or
fraction) by putting a 1 under it.
 24/1, -8/1, 567/1, -76/1, 24/3, -64/8
