Key Concepts
Here are the essential concepts you must grasp in order to answer the question correctly.
Natural Numbers
Natural numbers are the set of positive integers starting from 1 and going upwards (1, 2, 3, ...). They do not include zero or any negative numbers. In the context of the given set, identifying natural numbers involves recognizing which elements are positive whole numbers.

The Natural Log
Rational and Irrational Numbers
Rational numbers are numbers that can be expressed as a fraction of two integers, where the denominator is not zero. This includes integers, fractions, and terminating or repeating decimals. In contrast, irrational numbers cannot be expressed as simple fractions; they have non-repeating, non-terminating decimal expansions, such as √3. Understanding these distinctions is crucial for categorizing the elements in the set.
