R is the set of positive rational numbers
R is a subset of Q, where Q is the set of all rational numbers. Rational numbers are numbers that can be expressed as a ratio of two integers.
- Examples of rational numbers include:
1/2, 3/4, 5/6, 7/8, 9/10, etc.
- Properties of rational numbers:
Rational numbers are closed under addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division operations.
The sum, difference, product, and quotient of two rational numbers is always a rational number.
Rational numbers can be represented on a number line.
E is the set of real numbers
E is the set of all real numbers, which includes both rational and irrational numbers. Real numbers are numbers that can be represented on a number line.
- Examples of real numbers include:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, etc.
0, -1, -2, -3, -4, -5, -6, -7, -8, -9, -10, etc.
π, √2, √3, √5, etc.
- Properties of real numbers:
Real numbers are closed under addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division operations.
The sum, difference, product, and quotient of two real numbers is always a real number.
Real numbers can be represented on a number line.
Relation between R and E
R is a subset of E, as all rational numbers are real numbers.
- Properties of R and E:
Rational numbers are countable, while real numbers are uncountable.
Rational numbers have a finite or repeating decimal representation, while real numbers can have an infinite and non-repeating decimal representation.
Some real numbers are irrational, which means they cannot be expressed as a ratio of two integers.
Conclusion
In conclusion, R is a subset of Q and E is the set of all real numbers. R is a subset of E, as all rational numbers are real numbers. While rational numbers are countable and have a finite or repeating decimal representation, real numbers are uncountable and can have an infinite and non-repeating decimal representation.
