Subtracting integers
NOT communative (the order does matter) EX: Unlike adding where (+8) + (-12) = -4 and -12 + (+8)= -4 (+8) - (-12) = +4 and (-12) (+8) = -20 -Unlike addition when subtracting, you MUST pay attention to the number that is being subtracted from Method 1- symbolically a) (+8) - (+12) = -4 b) (-12) (+8) = -20 Method 2- tiles/coins 1 2 3 4 5

Multiplying integers -Multiplication is communative (the order does not matter) Method 1- symbolically (+8) x (-12) = -96 Method 2- Groups (ex:tiles/coins 8 groups of -12 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 NOTE-positives are white/ negatives are grey 8

96

If the question is a negative multiplied by a negative consider it as you are getting rid of (-) 8 groups of -12 / or getting rid of a debt Method 3- Number line 0 -96 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 .

Method 4 The driving/walking method The first symbol tells you what direction your car is facing + is north , - is south The second symbol tells you if you are driving forward or reverse So (+8) x (-12) = -96 could be thought as: you are facing north(+) for 8 trips, driving in reveres for 12km each trip for total of 96 km towards the south (-) (-8) x (-12)= you are facing south (-) and are driving 8 trips of 12km in reverse (-) which you will end up 96 km further north Practice Symbolically Tiles (groups)

Division of integers -Division is NON-communative (the order does matter) therefore: -96 -12 = +8 -But- -12 -96 does not= 8 Method 1- symbolically -96 -12 = +8 Method 2- Groups (ex: tiles/coins NOTE-positives are white/ negatives are grey If you have 96 people in 8 groups, you will have 12 people per group 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 96 Method 3- Number line (same as multiplication) 0 -96 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 .

Method 4 The driving/walking method The first symbol tells you what direction your car is facing (+ or -) The second symbol tells you if you are driving forward or reverse So -96 (+8) = -12 thought as: If you drove 96 km south (-96) while facing forward over 8 trips/days (+8) , you must have went 12km south (-12) per day Practice Symbolically Tiles (groups)

Notes for Integers -These notes are basic information, it is expected that you provide additional information as needed to support your understanding. The following are the rule for working with Integers. (signed numbers) From: https://staff.rockwood.k12.mo.us/talleurkathryn/7grade/Documents/Accentuate%20the%20Negative/Integers%20rules.pdf Adding Integers When you add two numbers with the same sign Add the numbers Keep the sign Ex -3 + -6 = -9 When you add two numbers with different signs Subtract the numbers Take the sign of the larger absolute number Ex -9 + 3 = -6 + + + + + + + + = = = = + The sign of the largest number The sign of the largest number + Subtraction Integers When you see a subtraction sign Change the subtraction sign to an addition sign Change the sign of the next number (Then follow the addition rules) Ex -6 9 = -6 + -9 = -15 + + + + -

= = = =

If the first number is smaller than the second number it will be Always + because subtracting a negative is like adding a positive Always because subtracting a positive is taking away more from the original number If the first number is smaller than the second number it will be Multiplying and Dividing Integers

Multiply and Divide the numbers like normal Use the following chart to determine the sign + X + = + + X = X + = X = + Understanding written BEDMAS questions using the example 5[(2-3) + (-4)] / 3 *please note the bracket explanations* B: There are 3 sets of brackets, so what now??? B1: (-4) is in brackets simply to ensure the student understands it is a negative number, instead of a number that has to be subtract b:. Numbers that are on their own like this can be left alone until they are a part of an operation B2) (2-3), since these are inside a larger set of brackets we want to answer these before anything else =-1 B3: [(2-3) + (-4)], we want to make sure we solve anything in brackets separately from anything outside of brackets, if there are brackets inside brackets, we must solve the inside brackets first, than the outside brackets = [(-1) + (-4)]=-5 2 Exponents: Once you have solved all relevant brackets, you want to determine the exponent solution (-5) =(+25) Division: Division often acts as a separator, particularly when you have one operation OVER another operation, in this case you want to solve the top section separately from the bottom section, then divide each section (since we must separate sections before solving, this will be done after all top steps have been addressed) Multiplication: the order of multiplication and division can be interchanged when it does not conflict with other operation orders 5(25)=125 Addition/Subtraction: The order in which you perform this can also be interchanged as long as it does not conflict with other operations Final solution 125/3= 41.66
