Read about and think about the progressive definitions of these number types and then answer the question yourself. You have your Intermediate Algebra book or your College Algebra book to refer to.

---------------
pure imaginary:: Any multiple of "i":: 2i, 6i, -i, -10i
-----
real:: any number on the number line:: -7, -2/3, 0, 4, 10
------
complex:: a combination of Real and imaginary:: 2+i, -3-i, 10-3i, 20+2i
