The document discusses different types of number systems including real numbers, rational numbers, irrational numbers, integers, fractions, natural numbers, even numbers, and odd numbers. It defines these number systems and provides examples. It also outlines several key properties of real numbers including closure, identity, inverse, commutativity, associativity, and distributivity with regards to addition and multiplication. Finally, it presents several exercises involving identifying properties, finding inverses, and determining which number sets have certain properties like closure, identity, and inverse.

Number System.
Number system is the way to represent a number in different
forms.
Real Numbers.
The sum of rationaland irrationalnumbers is calledreal
numbers.
Real number = RationalNumbers+ IrrationalNumbers.

Rational Numbers.
A rationalnumber is a number which can be put in the form
𝑃/q) where p, q ϵ Z ∧ q ≠ 0. The number√16, 3, 7, 4 etc. are
rational numbers. √16 Can be reduced to form
𝑝
𝑞⁄ where p,
q ϵ Z and q ≠ 0 because √16 =4=4
1⁄ .

3. IrrationalNumbers.
Irrational Numbers are those numbers which cannot be put
into the form
𝑝
𝑞⁄ where p, q ϵ Z and q≠0. The numbers√2,

Properties of Real Numbers.
Addition Laws:
1. Closure Property w.r.t addition.
∀ a, b ϵ R,a+b=R (∀ Stands for “for all”)
2. Associative propertyw.r.t addition.
∀ a, b, c ϵ R, a+(b+c)=(a+b)+c
3. Additive identity.
∀ a ϵ R , ∃ 0 ϵ R such that a+0=0+a=a
(∃ stand for “there exist”)
0 (read as zero) is calledthe identity element of
addition.
4. Additive inverse.
∀ a ϵ R, ∃ (-a) ϵ R such that
a+(-a)=(-a)+a=0
5. Commutative Property w.r.t addition.
∀ a, b ϵ R, a+b=b+a
5. Multiplicative Laws:
i. Closure Property w.r.t Multiplication.
∀ a, b ϵ R,a.b=R (a.b is usually written as ab)
ii. Associative propertyw.r.t multiplication.
∀ a, b, c ϵ R, a(bc)=(ab)c
iii. Multiplicative identity.
∀ a ϵ R , ∃ 1 ϵ R such that a.1=1.a=a 1 is called the
multiplicativeidentity of real numbers.
iv. Multiplicative inverse.
∀ a(≠0) ϵ R, ∃ (𝑎−1
) ϵ R such that a. 𝑎−1
= 𝑎−1
.a=1
(𝑎−1
is also written as
1
𝑎
)
v. Commutative Property w.r.t addition.
∀ a, b ϵ R, ab=ba
DistributivePropertyof Multiplicationoveraddition.
∀ a, b, c ϵR such that;
a (b+c)= ab+ac ( left D.Law)
(a+b) c= ac+bc ( Right D.Law)
