Number -13 is classified as real and integer
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that The number -13 can be classified as
Let us first understand about real numbers, whole numbers, Integers and irrational numbers
<h3><u>Whole numbers:</u></h3>
Whole numbers are positive numbers, including zero, without any decimal or fractional parts. Negative numbers are not considered "whole numbers."
But -13 is a negative number. Therefore -13 is not a whole number
<h3><u>Real numbers:</u></h3>
Positive or negative, large or small, whole numbers or decimal numbers are all Real Numbers. They are called "Real Numbers" because they are not Imaginary Numbers.
Therefore -13 is a real number
<h3><u>Integers:</u></h3>
An integer is a whole number (not a fractional number) that can be positive, negative, or zero. Examples of integers are: -5, 1, 5, 8, 97, and 3,043.
Therefore -13 is a integer
<h3><u>Irrational number:</u></h3>
An irrational number is real number that cannot be expressed as a ratio of two integers. An irrational number is not able to be written as a simple fraction because the numbers in the decimal of a fraction would go on forever
But -13 can be expressed in fraction as
Therefore -13 is not a irrational number
Thus we can conclude that number -13 is classified as real and integer
