MATHEMATICS 7
ACCOUNTMATHEMATICS
9 Module 8
Hello everyone! Welcome to Module 8 of Mathematics 7!
You learned in the last module how to estimate square root of a whole number
To the nearest hundredths and plot irrational numbers on a number line.
Now you will be exposed to the different kinds of real numbers. You will learn
how to arrange them in increasing or decreasing order and plot them on a number
line.
You could feel that I am with you while reading this module. The first part of this
module is a Pre-Test. Read the lessons carefully, then do the exercises and activities,
and finally, answer the Post Test.
There are questions inside a box that you need to answer by yourself first. You are guided by this
bitmoji
Then italicized words after this bitmoji will give you the correct answer.
Whenever you will see this bitmoji a lesson is presented.
After going through this module, you are expected to:
• Illustrate the different subsets of real numbers
• Arrange real numbers in increasing or decreasing order
• Plot real numbers on a number line
Happy reading!

7. COUNTING 8. ZERO 9. WHOLE
10. NEGATIVE 11. RATIONAL 12. DECIMAL
Activity 2: RECALLING YOUR PAST.
Try to recall your experiences in the past by answering the questions below.
1. What were the first set of numbers you learn during your early stage when you
were just starting to talk?
2. What number represents “ nothing”?
3. You are now grown-ups and started to study the “opposites”. Can you give
examples of numbers that specifically describe debt or below zero temperature?
4. Give examples of numbers that are part of a whole. For example, you cannot eat
the whole cake in one seating. How do you express the part of the cake you
consumed?
5. In your studies, there are three kinds of decimals. They are
1) terminating decimals
2) repeating and non-terminating (repeats and never ends)
3) non-repeating and non-terminating (do not repeat and never ends)
Give 3 examples for each.
Answers may vary. For numbers 3 to 5, some of the possible answers are:
1. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
2. 0
3. -100, -5°, etc.(any negative numbers)
4. 1
4 ,
1
2 ,
2
3, 𝑒𝑡𝑐. (any fractions)
5. terminating decimals: 0.4, 5.14, 8.35, etc
Repeating and non-terminating: 0.2222…, 6.131313… 15.424242…
Non-repeating and non-terminating: 3.141592654… 2.236067978…
. Since you were a child you experience to play and deal with numbers.
• First, when you are just starting to talk you begin uttering numbers
like 1, 2, 3, …up to 10. This means you are already counting. That is why
this first set of numbers you learn are called COUNTING or NATURAL NUMBERS.
• As you grow older, more numbers are added to your list
of numbers. Aside from counting/natural numbers, you learn ZERO to represent “nothing”.
Counting/Natural Numbers + zero = WHOLE NUMBERS.
• Eventually you found out that not all numbers are composed
of zero and counting numbers. You learn that there are numbers BELOW ZERO. These are
the NEGATIVE of whole numbers. So, whole numbers + negative of counting/
natural numbers = INTEGERS.
• Then time comes that you experience taking only a part of a whole,
thus finding that integers could be used as a numerator and denominator forming a fraction. These
types of numbers are called RATIONAL NUMBERS. Take note that not all integers can be used
as a denominator. ZERO cannot be used as a denominator of a fraction. This is not a legal fraction
because its overall value is undefined.
• Fractions have numerators and denominators. If the numerators and
denominators are integers, and you divide numerators by the denominators this results to decimals.
Decimals could be terminating, repeating non-terminating, non-repeating non-terminating.
Terminating decimals and repeating and non-terminating decimals are RATIONAL NUMBERS.
Non-repeatng and non-terminating decimals are IRRATIONAL NUMBERS. Rational numbers
CAN NOT be expressed as a quotient of two integers.
• RATIONAL NUMBERS and IRRATIONAL NUMBERS are both
REAL NUMBERS.
Look at the Venn Diagram
here to show real numbers and their
subsets.
Activity 3: TRUE or FALSE
Read the following sentences carefully. Write the word TRUE if the statement is true;
otherwise, write the word FALSE.
1. All integers are rational.
2. “5” is a whole number, an integer, a rational number and a real number.
3. All integers are whole numbers.
4. Zero is a rational number.
5. √9 is a rational number.

The figure on the right is a number line. On a number line, positive numbers are to the right of
zero. Negative numbers are to the left of zero.
Zero is neither positive nor negative.
The arrows at either end of the line indicate that
the number line extends forever in each
Direction. There is NO greatest positive number and there is
NO smallest negative number.
The number line can be used to
compare and order positive and negative numbers.
Going from left to right, numbers increase in
value. Going from right to left, numbers decrease in
value.
Inequality symbols like < (read as “is less than”) and >(read as “is greater than”) are used to show the ordering of real numbers. If a and b are the two real numbers, and a is on the right of b, then we can say that a > b. If a is on the left of b, then a < b.
Example: Arrange the real numbers 21
4, - 3, 0, √8, -5 in increasing order and plot
them in a number line.
Solution: 2 1
4 needs to be converted to decimal (divide 1 by 4) = 2.25
√8 needs to get the approximate value to the nearest hundredths = 2.83
0
Whichever is on the farthest right has the greatest value. We will now plot all of these
numbers on a number line.
Answers:
- 5 < - 3 < 0 < 2 1
4 < √8

III. Answer the following questions:
1. How do you arrange real numbers from least to greatest? From greatest to least?
2. What are the different mathematical symbols that could be used in comparing real numbers?
3. How do you plot real numbers on a number line?
Identify the set of numbers that best describes the situation. Explain your choice.
Example:
• The number of people wearing eyeglasses in a room.
Answer: The set of whole numbers best describes the situation. Once we count,
we start from 1, 2, 3, and so on. So we might think the answer is natural/counting numbers. But what
about if no one wears eyeglasses, the answer could be 0.
