1.2 – Properties of Real Numbers
The set of real numbers has several subsets related in particular ways.
Algebra involves operations on and relations among numbers, including real numbers and
imaginary numbers.
Rational numbers and irrational numbers form the set of real numbers.

Problem 1:
Multiple Choice: Your school is sponsoring a charity race. Which set of numbers does not
contain the number of people p who participate in the race?
a. Natural numbers b. Integers
c. Rational numbers d. Irrational numbersThe number of people is a
natural number, which means it is also an integer and
rational number.

1.2 – Properties of Real NumbersThe properties of real numbers are relationships
that are true for all real numbers (except, in one case, zero).
The opposite or additive inverse of any number a is –a. The sum of a number and
its opposite is 0, the additive identity.
Examples: 12 + (-12) = 0
-7 + 7 = 0
1.2 – Properties of Real Numbers
The reciprocal or multiplicative inverse of an nonzero number a is 1/a. The product of a
number and its reciprocal is 1, the multiplicative identity.
Examples:
8(1/8) = 1
-5(-1/5) = 1

a. (-2/3)(-3/2) = 1
b. (3 x 4)x 5 = (4 x 3)x 5
c. 3(g + h) + 2g = (3g + 3h) + 2g
d. - 5 + 0 = -5
