Explain the use of Numbers.


Numbers and their usage :

  • A number is a mathematical object used to count, measure, and label.
  • The original examples are the natural numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, and so forth.

  • For being manipulated, individual numbers need to be represented by symbols, called numerals; for example, "5" is a numeral that represents the number five.

  • We use the digits 0 to 9 to form all the other numbers. Using these 10 digits we can form infinite numbers.

  • The numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, ... are called counting numbers or natural numbers.

  • The counting numbers or natural numbers along with zero form whole numbers.
