        Name all of the sets of numbers to which each real number belongs. Let N = natural numbers,
        W = whole numbers, Z =  integers, Q = rational numbers, and I = irrational numbers.

        Determine whether each statement is sometimes, always, or never true.
        7. A whole number is a rational number.

        8. A rational number is a natural number.

        9. A negative number is an integer.

        10. Zero is a natural number.




         Replace the • with <, >, or = to make a true  statement.  Order each set of numbers from least to greatest.
