Real numbers are the building blocks of mathematics, forming an essential foundation for countless mathematical concepts and applications. From the simplest counting to the most complex scientific calculations, real numbers play a vital role in quantifying, measuring, and understanding the world around us.

This article is about the world of real numbers, exploring their properties, classifications, and significance in mathematics.

Definition of Real Number

The set of rational and irrational numbers is called Real Numbers. A real number is denoted by R . Thus QUQ^/=R

Note: All the numbers on the number line are real numbers.

Rational Number

The word Rational means “Ratio”. Thus a number in the form of \frac{p}{q} where p \ and \ q are integers is called a Rational Number and is denoted by Q .

Set of Rational Number

Q= \{ \frac{p}{q} | p,q \in Z,q \neq0 \}

Irrational Numbers

The word Irrational means “Not Ratio”. The irrational number consists of all those numbers which are not rational. Irrational numbers are denoted by Q^/ .
