13. Biologists classify animals based on shared characteristics
Biologists classify animals based on shared characteristics. The gray lesser mouse lemur is an animal, a mammal, a primate, and a lemur.
You already know that some numbers can be classified as whole numbers,integers, or rational numbers. The number 2 is a whole number, an integer, and a rational number. It is also a real number.

Mammals
Primates
Lemurs

14. Recall that rational numbers can be written as fractions
Recall that rational numbers can be written as fractions. Rational numbers can also be written as decimals that either terminate or repeat.
4 5 23
3 = 3.8
= 0.6
1.44 = 1.2

15. Irrational numbers can only be written as decimals that do not terminate or repeat. If a whole number is not a perfect square, then its square root is an irrational number.
2 ≈ …
A repeating decimal may not appear to repeat on a calculator, because calculators show a finite number of digits.

23. The Density Property of real numbers states that between any two real numbers is another real number. This property is also true for rational numbers, but not for whole numbers or integers. For instance, there is no integer between –2 and –3.
