Irrational number are those numbers that cannot be represented aas a simple fraction (non-terminating, non-recurring integers).
Real numbers are a union of rational and irrational numbers.
The correct answer is: Natural
GIVEN-

TO FIND-
Which of the given options do not include -14.
SOLUTION-
We know that -14 is an integer because it is a negative non-fractional number.

Hence, the only option left is a natural number because natural numbers cannot be negative.
FINAL ANSWER-
Option 'c' i.e. 'Natural' is the correct answer to the given question.
