In our real lives, we generally deal with real numbers. The real number system can be further classified into various categories which are as follows: integers, rational numbers, irrational numbers, natural numbers, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">whole numbers<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">,<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">and so on. When we talk about whole numbers and natural numbers, we often tend to get confused, however, it is quite simple to differentiate between the two. In a layman\u2019s language, we can define whole numbers as those numbers that start with 0 and go on to infinity. On the other hand, natural numbers are those numbers that start with 1 and go on to infinity. In this article, we discuss the whole numbers and the natural numbers and differentiate between the two.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Natural_Numbers\"><\/span><strong>Natural Numbers<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Natural numbers are a part of rational numbers that include all the integers starting from 1 which go on to infinity. We see the presence of numbers everywhere, for measuring the temperature, for counting scores, for telling the time and the date, for exchanging money, etc. These numbers are basically called natural numbers. We can say that natural numbers are the subset of whole numbers. Some examples of natural numbers are 56, 76, 32, 41, 57, etc. We have discussed above that counting numbers are known as natural numbers. Thus, 0 is not a natural number since it is not used as a counting number. The symbol that is used to denote the set of natural numbers is \u2018N\u2019.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Whole_Numbers\"><\/span><strong>Whole Numbers<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whole numbers are a part of rational numbers that include all the integers starting from 0 which go on to infinity. The main difference between whole numbers and natural numbers is that whole numbers consist of an additional number that is 0. The symbol that is used to denote the set of whole numbers is \u2018W\u2019. If the concept of zero would not have been given by the famous mathematician Brahmagupta, we would certainly not have the concept of whole numbers.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Some_Interesting_Facts_About_Whole_Numbers_and_Natural_Numbers\"><\/span><strong>Some Interesting Facts About Whole Numbers and Natural Numbers<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are some interesting facts about whole numbers and natural numbers which will help you understand them better.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All natural numbers come under the set of whole numbers.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All the counting numbers are known as natural numbers.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All positive integers are known as natural numbers while all positive integers with an additional number i.e 0 are known as whole numbers.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whole numbers and natural numbers are the subsets of real numbers in a set order.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Whole_Numbers_Vs_Natural_Numbers\"><\/span><strong>Whole Numbers Vs Natural Numbers<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whole Numbers<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Natural Numbers<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whole numbers are a part of rational numbers that include all the integers starting from 0 which go on to infinity.<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Natural numbers are a part of rational numbers that include all the integers starting from 1 which go on to infinity.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The symbol that is used to denote the set of whole numbers is \u2018W\u2019.<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The symbol that is used to denote the set of natural numbers is \u2018N\u2019.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Under the set notation, whole numbers are the superset of natural numbers.<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Under the set notation, natural numbers are the subset of whole numbers.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">0 is the first number in the set of whole numbers.<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1 is the first number in the set of natural numbers.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the roster form, we can write whole numbers as: W = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, \u2026.}<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the roster form, we can write natural numbers as: N = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, \u2026.}<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you want to learn the concepts of the real number system in a detail, fun, and interesting manner, visit Cuemath.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Differences The number system is categorized into two types, real numbers, and complex numbers.
