Vocabulary
counting number (p. 6)
whole number (p. 6)
Standard 1NS1.1 Count,
read, and write whole
numbers to 100.
Standard 1NS1.2 Compare
and order whole numbers to
100 by using the symbols for
less than, equal to, or greater
than (<, =, >).
The What: I will define, identify, and compare
whole numbers.
The Why: Whole numbers are used every day.
They are used to label lockers and
show grades on a test.
Suppose someone asked you to count to 10. You would say, 1,
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. This makes sense because the set of
numbers 1, 2, 3, and so on are called the counting numbers.
Notice that this set of numbers does not include zero. The set of
whole numbers includes all of the counting numbers and zero.

Whole Numbers NOT Whole Numbers

5 -5
29 2.8
43 _2
5
394 6 1_3

Some fractions, mixed numbers, and decimals are not whole

numbers. However, the whole number 1 can be written as a
(2)
fraction _2 or as a decimal (1.000).

6 Prerequisite Skills
 EXAMPLE Identify Whole Numbers
Identify the whole numbers in the set _3, 12, 4.1.
4
_3 3
_ is a fraction. It is not a whole number.
4 4
12 12 is a whole number.
4.1 4.1 is a decimal. It is not a whole number.
So 12 is the whole number.

Your Turn Identify the whole numbers in each set.

A mixed number mixes a. _, 2.3, 19 b. 3.6, 0, 4 _
8 2
a counting number and a
fraction.
1 _21 is a mixed number. Numbers to the right on a number line are greater than
numbers to the left. Numbers to the left are less than numbers
to the right. Two symbols, > meaning greater than and <
meaning less than, are used to show these relationships.

EXAMPLE Compare Whole Numbers

Compare 5 8. Replace the with >, <, or = to
make a true statement.

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

8 is greater than 5. 8 is to the right of 5.

8>5 The > symbol means greater than.

Your Turn Compare. Replace the with >, <, or = to

make a true statement.
