2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 30 are even numbers. Odd numbers always end with a digit of 1, 3, 5, 7, or 9. 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 29, 31 are odd numbers.
A positive integer: 1, 2, 3, 4, (OEIS A000027), also called a natural number. However, zero (0) is sometimes also included in the list of counting numbers. Due to lack of standard terminology, the following terms are recommended in preference to "counting number," "natural number," and "whole number."
): The counting numbers {1, 2, 3, } are commonly called natural numbers; however, other definitions include 0, so that the non-negative integers {0, 1, 2, 3, } are also called natural numbers. Natural numbers including 0 are also called whole numbers.
Zero does not have a positive or negative value. Since all the natural numbers are positive integers, hence we cannot say zero is a natural number. Although zero is called a whole number.
First five multiple of 5 are 5 10. 15 20 25. So average = sum of the observations/no. of observations=(5 +10+15+20+25/5)=75/5=15.
The average of first n natural numbers = (n+1)/2. The average of squares of first n natural numbers = (n+1)(2n+1)/6. The average of cubes of first n natural numbers = n(n+1)2/4. The average of odd numbers from 1 to n = (last odd number+1)/2.

Answer. Heya !!! Sum of all these numbers = ( 2 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 11 + 13 + 17 + 19 ) = 77.
MEAN OF FIRST FIVE COMPOSITE NOS IS 7.5.
The mean is the average of the numbers. It is easy to calculate: add up all the numbers, then divide by how many numbers there are. In other words it is the sum divided by the count.
Answer. We have to find the mean of first 8 natural numbers. Hence the mean of first eight natural numbers wil be 4.5.
Median
- Arrange your numbers in numerical order.
- Count how many numbers you have.
- If you have an odd number, divide by 2 and round up to get the position of the median number.
- If you have an even number, divide by 2. Go to the number in that position and average it with the number in the next higher position to get the median.
These are called counting numbers and are also called natural numbers. When we add 0 to the set of counting numbers, we get whole numbers. So, 0, 1, 2, 3,….,10 are called whole numbers. So, 1 is the smallest natural number and 0 is the smallest whole number.
Counting numbers are the set of numbers that we use to learn how to count. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and so on. They are also called natural numbers—maybe since they feel natural to us because they are naturally the first numbers we learn. Sometimes they are also referred to as positive integers.
Hindu-Arabic numerals, set of 10 symbols—1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0—that represent numbers in the decimal number system. They originated in India in the 6th or 7th century and were introduced to Europe through the writings of Middle Eastern mathematicians, especially al-Khwarizmi and al-Kindi, about the 12th century.
The biggest number referred to regularly is a googolplex (10googol), which works out as 1010^100.
The smallest natural number is 1. It is not possible to write the greatest natural number because natural numbers go up to infinity.
Beginning in the 6th century BC with the Pythagoreans, with Greek mathematics the Ancient Greeks began a systematic study of mathematics as a subject in its own right. Around 300 BC, Euclid introduced the axiomatic method still used in mathematics today, consisting of definition, axiom, theorem, and proof.
The Babylonian number system uses base 60 (sexagesimal) instead of 10. Their notation is not terribly hard to decipher, partly because they use a positional notation system, just like we do.
For example, the Arabic numeral system we're all familiar with today is usually credited to two mathematicians from ancient India: Brahmagupta from the 6th century B.C. and Aryabhat from the 5th century B.C. Eventually, numbers were necessary for more than simply counting things.
