All the rational numbers and all the irrational numbers together form the real numbers. Every rational number is real, and every irrational number is real. For our purposes at this time, ... Taking into account the irrational numbers and the real numbers, our new classification might look like this:

Once you're learned about fractions, there is another major classification of numbers: the ones that can't be written as fractions. ... Putting these two major classifications, the rationals and the irrationals, together in one set gives you the "real" numbers. Unless you have dealt with complex numbers (the numbers with...

Note for math purists: In the strict axiomatic field development of the real numbers, both 0 and 1 are singled out for special treatment. Zero is the additive identity, because adding zero to a number does not change the number.

It is true that the real numbers are 'points on a line,' but that's not the whole truth. This web page explains that the real number system is a Dedekind-complete ordered field. The various concepts are illustrated with several other fields as well.

This tutorial reviews multiplying and dividing real numbers and intertwines that with some order of operation and evaluation problems. It also reminds you that dividing by 0 results in an undefined answer. In other words, it is a big no, no.
