Answer 1

The list that shows an accurate hierarchy of number sets within the real number system from largest to smallest is:

1. Real Numbers (R): It includes all numbers on the number line, including both rational and irrational numbers.
2. Rational Numbers (Q): It includes all numbers that can be expressed as a fraction of two integers, where the denominator is not zero.
3. Integers (Z): It includes all whole numbers (positive, negative, or zero) and their opposites.
4. Natural Numbers (N): It includes all counting numbers (positive integers) starting from 1.
5. Whole Numbers (W): It includes all non-negative integers (including zero).
