The real number −1.7 belongs to the following sets:

C. Integers

D. Rational numbers

  • A. Natural numbers: The natural numbers are the positive integers (1, 2, 3, ...) and do not include negative numbers or decimals. Since −1.7 is negative and has a decimal, it is not a natural number.
  • B. Whole numbers: The whole numbers include all the natural numbers plus zero. Since −1.7 is negative and not an integer, it is not a whole number.
  • C. Integers: The integers include all the whole numbers (positive and negative) and zero. Since −1.7 is a negative number and an integer, it belongs to the set of integers.
  • D. Rational numbers: Rational numbers include integers and any number that can be expressed as a fraction of two integers. Since −1.7 can be written as −1710
