    Real numbers include rational numbers like integers and fractions as well as irrational numbers like the square root of 2. The set of real numbers R is the union of rational numbers Q and irrational numbers √. Real numbers range from negative to positive infinity and include natural, whole, integer, rational, and irrational numbers.

    Real Numbers

    Real number is any number that can be found in the


    real world. We find numbers everywhere around us.
    Natural numbers are used for counting objects,
    rational numbers are used for representing fractions,
    irrational numbers are used for calculating the square
    root of a number, integers for measuring temperature,
    and so on. These different types of numbers make a
    collection of real numbers. In this lesson, let us learn
    all about what are real numbers, the subsets of real
    numbers along with real numbers examples.
    Set of Real Numbers

    •Any number that we can think of, except


    complex numbers, is a real number. For
    example, 3, 0, 1.5, 3/2, √5, and so on are
    real numbers.
    Definition of Real Numbers

    • Real numbers include rational numbers like positive


    and negative integers, fractions, and irrational
    numbers. Now, which numbers are not real numbers?
    The numbers that are neither rational nor irrational
    are non-real numbers, like, √-1, 2 + 3i, and -i. These
    numbers include the set of complex numbers, C.
    Set of Real Numbers

    • The set of real numbers, which is denoted by R, is the


    union of the set of rational numbers (Q) and the set of
    irrational numbers (Ǭ). So, we can write the set of real
    numbers as, R = Q U Ǭ
    • . This indicates that real numbers include natural
    numbers, whole numbers, integers, rational numbers, and
    irrational numbers. Observe the following table to
    understand this better. The table shows the sets of
    numbers that come under real numbers.
    List of Real Numbers

    • The list of real numbers is endless because it


    includes all kinds of numbers like whole, natural,
    integers, rational, and irrational numbers. Since it
    includes integers it has negative numbers too. So,
    there is no specific number from which the list of
    real numbers starts or ends. It goes to infinity
    towards both sides of the number line.
    Rational Numbers
    • Any number which can be defined in the form of
    a fraction p/q is called a rational number. The
    numerator in the fraction is represented as 'p' and
    the denominator as 'q', where 'q' is not equal to
    zero. A rational number can be a natural number,
    a whole number, a decimal, or an integer. For
    example, 1/2, -2/3, 0.5, 0.333 are rational
    numbers.
    Irrational Numbers

    • Irrational numbers are the set of real numbers that


    cannot be expressed in the form of a fraction p/q
    where 'p' and 'q' are integers and the denominator
    'q' is not equal to zero (q≠0.). For example, π (pi)
    is an irrational number. π = 3.14159265...In this
    case, the decimal value never ends at any point.
    Therefore, numbers like √2, -√7, and so on are
    irrational numbers.
    Symbol of Real Numbers
    • Real numbers are represented by the symbol R. Here is a list of the
    symbols of the other types of numbers.

    • N - Natural numbers
    • W - Whole numbers
    • Z - Integers
    • Q - Rational numbers
    • Ǭ - Irrational numbers
