Perla Quinn · Answer 2

False

Step-by-step explanation:

This statement is false.

The set of whole numbers include the set of Natural numbers "N" = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, ... }, the set of the negatives of the natural numbers: {-1, - 2, - 3, - 4, ... }, and the zero: {0}

We see then that the set of Natural numbers is a subset of the set of whole numbers Z = { ... - 4,-3,-2,-1, 0,1, 2, 3, 4, 5, ... }
