Identify all sets to which the number 3 belongs
A. Whole numbers, integers, rational numbers
B. Rational numbers
C. Integers, rational numbers
D. Even numbers, whole numbers, integers, rational numbers
I THINK IT'S A
Can u freaking help me the ****
It is A
When we get time, we get online to respond.
I agree with A.
Thanks for no help at all
can you please help.
the number -8 belongs to what number set(s)?
To identify all sets to which the number 3 belongs, we need to understand the definitions of these sets. Here is a breakdown of each set:
- Whole numbers: Whole numbers are positive numbers, including zero, with no fractional or decimal parts. Since 3 is a positive number without any fractional or decimal parts, it belongs to the set of whole numbers.
- Integers: Integers are numbers that include both positive and negative whole numbers, as well as zero. Since 3 is a positive whole number, it is also considered an integer.
- Rational numbers: Rational numbers are numbers that can be expressed as a fraction, where the numerator and denominator are both integers and the denominator is not zero. Since 3 can be expressed as the fraction 3/1, it is a rational number.
Analyzing the options given:
A. Whole numbers, integers, rational numbers: This statement is correct, as explained above. Therefore, option A is a valid answer.
B. Rational numbers: This statement is correct, as explained above. However, since 3 is also a whole number and an integer, option B does not include all sets to which 3 belongs.
C. Integers, rational numbers: This statement is correct, as explained above. Therefore, option C is a valid answer.
D. Even numbers, whole numbers, integers, rational numbers: This statement is incorrect. We previously established that 3 is not an even number, so option D does not include all sets to which 3 belongs.
Considering the explanations above, both options A and C are valid answers, so it's possible that you are correct in choosing option A.
