Real number In mathematics‚ a real number is a value that represents a quantity along a continuum‚ such as 5 (an integer)‚ 3/4 (a rational number that is not an integer)‚ 8.6 (a rational number expressed in decimal representation)‚ and π (3.1415926535...‚ an irrational number). As a subset of the real numbers‚ the integers‚ such as 5‚ express discrete rather than continuous quantities. Complex numbers include real numbers as a special case. Real numbers can be divided into rational numbers‚ such

In mathematics‚ a real number is a value that represents a quantity along a continuous line. The real numbers include all the rational numbers‚ such as the integer −5 and the fraction 4/3‚ and all the irrational numbers such as √2 (1.41421356... the square root of two‚ an irrational algebraic number) and π (3.14159265...‚ a transcendental number). Real numbers can be thought of as points on an infinitely long line called the number line or real line‚ where the points corresponding to integers are

Real Numbers -Real Numbers are every number. -Therefore‚ any number that you can find on the number line. -Real Numbers have two categories‚ rational and irrational. Rational Numbers -Any number that can be expressed as a repeating or terminating decimal is classified as a rational number Examples of Rational Numbers 6 is a rational number because it can be expressed as 6.0 and therefore it is a terminating decimal. -7 ½ is a rational number because it can be expressed as -7.5 which is a

“Mesoamerican Vigesimal Number System” In the modern world we use a number system based on ten with a symbol representing zero to nine. Numbers are written horizontally with each number place representing that the number value has exceeded the value of the number place to the right. The Mayans or Mesoamericans used a twenty based number system that is written vertically. According to the Mayans numerical system one dot is equal to one and instead of writing five dots for the number five a line replaces

would be without irrational numbers? If the great Pythagorean hyppasus or any other mathematician would have not ever thought of such numbers? Before ‚understanding the development of irrational numbers ‚we should understand what these numbers originally are and who discovered them? In mathematics‚ an irrational number is any real number that cannot be expressed as a ratio a/b‚ where a and b are integers and b is non-zero. Irrational numbers are those real numbers that cannot be represented as
