Are natural numbers and positive numbers the same?
Natural Numbers:
- The most basic and the first numbers that were used by man were the Counting Numbers.
- These counting numbers from the set of Natural numbers.
- Natural numbers $=$ {1, 2, 3, 4, 5.....}
Positive numbers :
- Positive numbers are located to the right of zero on the number line.
- Positive numbers can also include positive rational numbers like $\frac{2}{5},\frac{7}{2}$, etc whereas natural numbers do not have fractions or decimals.
