Numbers & Their Operations
Types of numbers
Integers ($\mathbb{Z}$): $…, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, …$
Prime: integers that are divisible by 1 and itself only, smallest prime number is 2
Rational numbers ($\mathbb{Q}$) $\dfrac{\text{integer}}{\text{integer}}$: $\dfrac{4}{7}, -3\dfrac{1}{8}, 0.3, 2.\dot{6}\dot{5}, 92, \sqrt{16}$
Irrational numbers: $\pi, \sqrt{2}, e$
Real numbers ($\mathbb{R}$): all numbers
