To understand the hierarchy of number sets within the real number system, we need to know the definitions of each of these sets:

1. **Natural Numbers** (N): {1, 2, 3, ...} (sometimes includes 0)
2. **Whole Numbers** (W): {0, 1, 2, 3, ...}
3. **Integers** (Z): {..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ...}
4. **Rational Numbers** (Q): Numbers that can be expressed as a fraction where both the numerator and denominator are integers (e.g., 1/2, 3, -4).
5. **Irrational Numbers**: Numbers that cannot be expressed as a simple fraction (e.g., π, √2, endless non-repeating decimals).

Now, let's clarify the inclusivity of each set:

- Natural Numbers are a subset of Whole Numbers.
- Whole Numbers are a subset of Integers.
- Integers are a subset of Rational Numbers.
- Rational Numbers consist of both terminating and repeating decimals, while Irrational Numbers consist of non-terminating, non-repeating decimals.

Now, based on these definitions, we can determine the hierarchy. The correct order from largest set to smallest set should include:

1. **Real Numbers (which encompass all these sets)**
2. **Rational Numbers** (including both integers and irrational numbers)
3. **Integers** (a subset of rational numbers)
4. **Whole Numbers** (a subset of integers)
5. **Natural Numbers** (a subset of whole numbers)

Considering the options:

1. "Integers, rational numbers, natural numbers, whole numbers": Incorrect
2. "Irrational numbers, square roots, endless decimals, pi": Incorrect and not a hierarchy
3. "Rational numbers, integers, whole numbers, natural numbers": Is a correct order from the largest to the smallest.
4. "Natural numbers, whole numbers, integers, rational numbers": Incorrect

Thus, the correct hierarchy from largest to smallest in your list is:

**Rational numbers, integers, whole numbers, natural numbers.**
