What is the smallest Natural number?
(a) 0
(b) 1
(c) 2
(d) None of these

Hint: We start solving the problem by recalling the definition of natural numbers as the numbers that were used for counting in daily life. We then write the numbers that were used for counting (i.e., natural numbers) in ascending order. We then find the smallest of all the written numbers to get the required answer.

Complete step by step answer:
According to the problem, we need to find the value of the smallest natural number.
Let us first recall the definition of natural numbers.
We know that the natural numbers are the numbers that were used for counting in daily life. Let us write these numbers in ascending order which are as follows: 1, 2, 3,……, $\infty $ ---(1).
From equation (1), we can see that the smallest of the numbers present is 1.
So, the smallest natural number is 1.
$\therefore$ The correct option for the given problem is (b).

Note:
 We should know that Natural numbers are positive integers that were present on the real number line. We should not confuse natural numbers with whole numbers and include zero which is the most common mistake done by the students. We should not include decimal values in natural numbers, whole numbers, and integers. Similarly, we can expect problems to find the value of the largest negative integer.
