addition and
multiplication
for integers
Concepts Addition Same sign add and keep the sign! Calculate:
Add the absolute value of the a) i. (+3) + (+4)
numbers and keep the same sign. ii. (+3) + (4)
(positive) + (positive) = positive iii. (13)+(4)
(+4) + (+5) = +9 iv. (+3) + (3)
(negative) + (negative) = negative b) Determine if a positive or
(-4) + (5) = 9 a negative value has been
Different signs subtract and keep the added to give the sum in:
sign of the bigger number! i. 7 + __ = 0
Subtract the absolute value of the ii. __ 8 = 16
numbers and keep the sign of the c) Determine if the sum of the
bigger number. following integers would be
(4) + (+5) = +1 positive or negative. Do not
(+4) + (5) = 1 give thesum:
i. 8, 10
ii. 12, 14
iii. 15, 20
iv. 4, 6, 13
v. 24, 25, 12
d) Keeping the integer values
between 10 and 10, give
two integers, with different
signs, that have a sum of:
i. 2
(e.g. +4 & 6 or 5 & +7)
ii. 4
iii. 0
iv. 5
v. 7
vi. 1
