Find the fraction that represents the number of natural numbers to total numbers in the collection 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. What fraction will it be for whole numbers?

Answer:

Given, the collection of numbers are 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. Total number of natural numbers = 5 Total number of whole numbers = 6 The fraction that represents the number of natural numbers to total numbers \[=\frac{\text{Total}\,\,\text{number}\,\,\text{of}\,\,\text{natural}\,\,\text{numbers}\,\,}{\text{Total}\,\,\text{number}\,\,\text{in}\,\,\text{the}\,\,\text{given}\,\,\text{collection}}\]\[=\frac{5}{6}\]                                                                                                                                                    Now, the fraction represents the whole numbers to the total numbers \[=\frac{\text{Total}\,\,\text{numbers}\,\,\text{of}\,\,\text{whole}\,\,\text{numbers}\,\,}{\text{Total}\,\,\text{numbers}\,\,\text{in}\,\,\text{the}\,\,\text{given}\,\,\text{collection}}\]\[=\frac{6}{6}=1\]
