Question

What are some ways to describe the relationship between sets of numbers

Answer 1

We can have the basic inequalities and equalities’ sign. (>, =, <).
These three set of symbols can discern, describe and explain the relationship between of numbers. These signs are used varying in many mathematical operations to explain and find discrepancy between value, sets of values or numbers in single and equitable category.
Examples includes
6 > 5; 6 is greater than 5; 5 is less than 6
1 > -1; -1 is less than 1; 1 is greater than -1
-2 = -2; -2 is equal to -2

Answer 2

Some possible correct answers are:

Describe them as individual sets;
describe one set as a subset of another;
use a Venn diagram to describe them graphically.

Step-by-step explanation:

Sets of numbers include: Real numbers; Natural numbers; Whole Numbers; Integers; Rational Numbers; Irrational Numbers.

When we describe the relationships between them, some are subsets of others.

For example, Whole Numbers are a subset of Integers; Whole Numbers contain just a portion of the numbers that are in Integers.

Similarly, Integers are a subset of Rational Numbers.

On the other hand, Rational and Irrational Numbers are separate sets, as they do not have any numbers in common.
