CBSE Class–10 Mathematics Revision Notes CHAPTER 01 REAL NUMBERS Natural numbers : Counting numbers are called Natural numbers. These numbers are denoted by N = {1, 2, 3, .........} Whole numbers : The collection of natural numbers along with 0 is the collection of Whole number and is denoted by W. Integers : The collection of natural numbers, their negatives along with the number zero are called Integers. This collection is denoted by Z. Rational number : The numbers, which are obtained by dividing two integers, are called Rational numbers. Division by zero is not defined . Coprime : If HCF of two numbers is 1, then the two numbers area called relatively prime or coprime. 1. Euclid’s division lemma : For given positive integers ‘a’ and ‘b’ there exist unique whole numbers ‘q’ and ‘r’ satisfying the relation a = bq + r , 0 ⩽ r < b . a = bq + r , 0 ⩽ r < b . . Theorem: If a a and b b ...
