Question

the number of stops a commuter train makes on a certain day is represented by N. Which set of nymbers best describes the value of N? integers, irrational numbers, whole numbers,natural numbers

Answer 1

The answer is: Natural numbers.

The explanation for this answer is shown below:

By definition, the set of Natural numbers, contains all the positive integers. Therefore, if the number of stops a commuter train makes on a certain day is represented by $N$, and $N=7$ or if it has any other positive integer as its value, $N$ will always be a natural number.

Answer 2

Answer:

The set of numbers which  best describes the value of N is:

              Natural numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that a train starts at one station and goes to the destination station with some stops in between.

Since, the trains has atleast one stop ( Since, it will definitely has one stop at the destination station )

Hence, the value of N is natural numbers.

Natural numbers is the set of all the counting numbers i.e. 1,23,.... and so om.

(

• Integers could not be a set

since integers is the collection of all positive and negative whole numbers and as number of stops can't be negative.

• Whole number could not be the possible set

since it contain all natural numbers including 0 and as the number of stops can;t be zero.

• Irrational number could not be used for counting. )
