Answer 1

The correct answer is: rational numbers, integers, whole numbers, natural numbers.

Rational numbers include all numbers that can be expressed as a fraction, such as 1/2 or -3/4. This set is the largest, as it includes all the other number sets.

Integers are the set of numbers that include all positive and negative whole numbers, as well as zero. Examples include -3, 0, and 5.

Whole numbers are similar to integers but do not include negative numbers. So, they include all positive whole numbers and zero. Examples include 0, 1, and 10.

Natural numbers, or counting numbers, are the set of positive whole numbers. Examples include 1, 2, 3, and so on.

Therefore, the hierarchy of number sets from largest to smallest within the real number system is: rational numbers, integers, whole numbers, natural numbers.
