NES Elementary Education Subtest 2 Questions and Answers 100% Pass Natural Numbers ✔✔N = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, . . . } Whole natural numbers together with zero. ✔✔W = {0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, . .... . } Every whole number has a unique opposite or negative whose sum with it is 0. For example, ✔✔2 + (-2) = 0 The set of integers consists of the whole numbers and their opposites. ✔✔Z = {. . ., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, . . . } Every nonzero integer has a unique reciprocal whose product with it is one.
