How do the whole numbers differ from the natural numbers?

Short Answer

Expert verified
The main difference between whole numbers and natural numbers resides in the whole numbers inclusion of zero in its set, while the natural numbers start from one upwards.

Step by step solution

01

Define Whole Numbers

Whole numbers are a set of numbers which include all the natural numbers along with zero. Basically, they are zero and the positive integers.
02

Define Natural Numbers

Natural numbers are a set of numbers starting from 1 and counting 'upwards' in the positive direction, i.e., 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and so on.
03

Point Out the Difference

The difference between whole numbers and natural numbers lies in the fact that natural numbers start from 1 and count upwards while whole numbers start from 0 and then count upwards, thereby including all natural numbers plus zero.
