1) Difference between Natural Numbers and Whole Numbers

Natural Numbers begin from 1 like 1,2,3,4 etc while whole number begin from 0 i.e. 0,1,2,3,4 etc. Thus there is only one difference between Natural and Whole Number

that whole number has 0 and natural number has no zero.

Predecessor means number before a number and successor means number after a given number.

Predecessor of 2 is 1 and Successor of 2 is 3.
