Adding Integers KMS 7 TH GRADE
Adding Integers Rules To add integers with the same sign: you add the absolute values and keep the sign. Example A : = 9 Example B: = -9
Your Turn = 23 = -23
Adding Integers Rules To add integers with different sign: you subtract the absolute values and keep the sign of the number farthest from zero. Example A : (-12) + 9 = 12 – 9 = 3 is farther from zero so the answer is (-3)
Your Turn 16 + (-12) = 16 – 12= 4 16 is farther from zero so the answer is positive 4.
Subtracting Integers Rule To subtract integers: Add its opposite Then use addition rules Example A: 8 – (-4)= 8 + (+4) = 12
Subtracting Integers Rule Example B: -12 – 4= (-4)= = -16
Try this one on your own. -6 – (-5)= -6 + (+5) 6-5 = 1 Answer is – 1 because -6 is farther from zero.
Multiplying and Dividing Integers Multiplying and Dividing Integers with the same sign: Answer is positive Example – 4 x -5 = 20 Example 4 x 5 = 20 Example -30 ÷ - 5 = 6 Example 30 ÷ 5= 6
Multiplying and Dividing Integers Multiplying and Dividing Integers with different signs: Answer is negative Example – 8 x 5 = -40 Example 4 x (-6) = -24 Example 50 ÷ (- 5) = -10 Example (-28) ÷ 4 = -7
Your Turn - 6 x -7 = 42 - 54 ÷ 9= -6
