MATH

1. Addition of Integers
Positive + Positive
When you add two positive integers, the result is positive.
Example:
3+5=8
Negative + Negative
When you add two negative integers, the result is negative.
Example:
-4 + (-6) = -10
Positive + Negative (or Negative + Positive)
To add a positive and a negative integer, subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger
absolute value, and take the sign of the larger number.
Example 1 (Positive + Negative):
8 + (-3) = 8 – 3 = 5
Since 8 is positive, the result is positive: 5
Example 2 (Negative + Positive):
-5 + 3 = 5 – 3 = 2
Since 5 is negative, the result is negative: -2
When Negative is Bigger
If the negative number has a larger absolute value, the sum will be negative.
Example:
-7 + 3 = 3 – 7 = -4
1. Subtraction of Integers
Positive – Positive
When subtracting two positive integers, subtract the smaller from the larger, and take the sign of
the larger number.
Example:
9–4=5
Negative – Negative
When subtracting two negative integers, subtract the smaller from the larger (ignoring the signs),
and then take the negative sign.
Example:
-8 – (-5) = -8 + 5 = -3
Positive – Negative
To subtract a negative integer, add the opposite of the negative number (which is a positive
number).
Example:
6 – (-4) = 6 + 4 = 10
Negative – Positive
To subtract a positive integer from a negative integer, subtract the positive from the negative and
keep the negative sign.
Example:
-6 – 3 = -9
2. Multiplication of Integers
Positive × Positive
Multiplying two positive integers results in a positive integer.
Example:
4 × 3 = 12
Negative × Negative
Multiplying two negative integers results in a positive integer.
Example:
-4 × -3 = 12
Positive × Negative (or Negative × Positive)
Multiplying a positive integer by a negative integer results in a negative integer.
Example 1 (Positive × Negative):
5 × -2 = -10
Example 2 (Negative × Positive):
-5 × 2 = -10
3. Division of Integers
Positive ÷ Positive
Dividing two positive integers results in a positive integer.
Example:
8÷2=4
Negative ÷ Negative
Dividing two negative integers results in a positive integer.
Example:
-8 ÷ -2 = 4
Positive ÷ Negative (or Negative ÷ Positive)
Dividing a positive integer by a negative integer (or a negative integer by a positive integer)
results in a negative integer.
Example 1 (Positive ÷ Negative):
8 ÷ -2 = -4
Example 2 (Negative ÷ Positive):
-8 ÷ 2 = -4
Special Case: Larger Negative vs. Positive
If the negative number is larger in absolute value than the positive number, the result will be
negative. For example:
-10 + 3 = -7 (The result is negative because the negative number is larger).
-5 – 10 = -15 (The result is negative because we’re subtracting a larger positive number from a
negative number).

1. Addition:
Positive + Positive = Positive
Negative + Negative = Negative
Positive + Negative = Subtract and take the sign of the larger number.
2. Subtraction:
Positive – Positive = Subtract and take the sign of the larger number.
Negative – Negative = Subtract and keep the negative sign.
Positive – Negative = Add the opposite of the negative number (change the sign).
Negative – Positive = Subtract and keep the negative sign.
3. Multiplication:
Positive × Positive = Positive
Negative × Negative = Positive
Positive × Negative = Negative
4. Division:
Positive ÷ Positive = Positive
Negative ÷ Negative = Positive
Positive ÷ Negative = Negative
Negative ÷ Positive = Negative
