Whole numbers are 0, 1, 2, 3, ...
Integers are –2, –1, 0, 1, 2, ...
Fractions are `1/2, 3/5, 7/2,` ...
Rational numbers are `3/2, (-1)/2, (-7)/8,` ...
So, according to the number systems,
(a) –114 `→` Integer and rational number
(b) `19/27` `→` Fraction and rational number
(c) `623/1` `→` Natural number, whole number, integer, fraction and rational number
(d) `- 19 3/4 = - 79/4` `→` Rational number
(e) `73/71` `→` Fraction and rational number
(f) 0 `→` Whole number, integer, fraction and rational number
