Natural numbers are numbers used for counting and ordering.
N = {1, 2, 3, 4…..} counting numbers are natural numbers.
Whole number:
Any positive number that does not include either a fractional part or a decimal part is said to be a whole number.
W = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4…..}
Rational number:
Rational numbers is a number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction p q   of two integers, where numerator is p and q is a non-zero denominator.
