Review the Number Classification Diagram below. Which value(s) is incorrectly classified?

List the value(s) that are not classified correctly and the reason their classification is incorrect.

0 is not a natural number because it is not positive and is not used for counting.

−14 is not a whole number because whole numbers do not include negative numbers.

9.1 is not an integer because integers do not include decimals.

$4.181818$ is a repeating decimal so it is not irrational.
