Which of the following statements are true (T) and which are false (F) ?
(a) Zero is the smallest natural number.
It is false because 0 is not a natural number.
(b) 400 is the predecessor of 399.
It is false because 400 is the successor of 399 but not the predecessor of 399.
(c) Zero is the smallest whole number.
It is true. Whole numbers start from zero.
(d) 600 is the successor of 599.
It is true because 599 + 1 = 600.
(e) All natural numbers are whole numbers.
It is true because when we add zero to the list of all natural numbers we get all whole numbers.
(f ) All whole numbers are natural numbers.
It is false because 0 is a whole number but not a natural number.
(g) The predecessor of a two digit number is never a single digit number.
It is false. Let’s take an example, predecessor of 10 = 10-1 = 9 which is a single digit number.
(h) 1 is the smallest whole number.
It is false because 0 is the smallest whole number.
(i) The natural number 1 has no predecessor.
It is false in the sense that predecessor of natural number 1 is whole number 0.
It is true in the sense that 1 does not have any predecessor which is a natural number.
(j) The whole number 1 has no predecessor.
It is false. Predecessor of whole number 1 is whole number 0.
(k) The whole number 13 lies between 11 and 12.
It is false because there is no whole number between 11 and 12. 13 is successor of 12.
(l) The whole number 0 has no predecessor.
It it true because the predecessor of whole number 0 is not a whole number.
(m) The successor of a two digit number is always a two digit number.
It is false.
Let’s take an example, successor of 99 = 99 + 1 = 100 which is a 3 digit number.
