Definition of Natural Number
The definition of natural number is hidden in its name itself. how?
The number that is used in counting natural things
. These are called natural numbers.
It is also called counting numbers. Because this number is used to count anything.
Natural numbers are positive integers. The values of integer numbers range from – ∞ to + ∞. One part of which is a positive integer and the other negative integer. A positive integer is a natural number.
Natural number value
The value of a natural number varies from 1 to ∞.
Ex – 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 ……… ∞

Natural Numbers Examples

Find the number of pens shown in the above picture.
To find the number of pens present in this picture, we will start counting the pens from one end.
Let’s start counting the pen from right to left.
Thus the first red pen, Second blue pen, Third green pen, Fourth yellow pen, Fifth orang pen, Sixth black pen
An object is started to be counted by one. No to zero. This proves it. Of zero is not a natural number.
We started counting pens from one to six. So the number of pens is six.
Property of Natural Number

- Closure Property
- Associative Property
- Commutative Property
- Distributive Property
Closure Property
Adding and multiplying any two or more natural numbers gives a natural number.
Addition
The sum of two natural numbers is a natural number.
ex – 2+2 = 4. 5+3 = 8, 9+2 = 11
Multiplication
The result of two natural numbers is a natural number.
Ex – 2×4 = 12, 5×8 = 40, 7×3 = 21
Subtraction
The subtraction of two natural numbers may or may not be a natural number. If the smaller natural numbers are subtracted from the larger natural numbers, then the obtained numbers will be natural numbers.
Conversely, if the larger natural number is subtracted from the smaller natural number, then the number obtained will not be a natural number.
Ex 5 – 3 = 2, 7 -10 = -3
Division
The quotient of two natural numbers may or may not be a natural number.
Ex – 10/8 = 1.25, 10/5 = 2
Associative Property
Associative property of natural number is correct in case of addition and multiplication.
Addition
a + ( b + c ) = ( a + b ) + c
Multiplication
a × ( b × c ) = ( a × b ) × c
Associative property of natural number is not correct in the case of Subtraction and Division.
Subtraction
a – ( b – c ) ≠ ( a – b ) – c
Division
a ÷ ( b ÷ c ) ≠ ( a ÷ b ) ÷ c
Commutative Property
Commutative Property of natural number is correct in case of addition and multiplication
Ex – x + y = y + x and a × b = b × a.
Commutative Property of natural number is not correct in case of addition and multiplication.
x – y ≠ y – x and x ÷ y ≠ y ÷ x.
Distributive Property
Distributive Property of natural number is correct in case of addition and multiplication
a × (b + c) = ab + ac
Distributive Property of natural number is not correct in case of addition and multiplication.
a × (b – c) = ab – ac.
