 INTRODUCTION TO INTEGERS

Integers are a set of whole numbers

that include both positive(+) and
negative(-) numbers, as well as zero(0).
They are used to represent quantities
that can be greater than
or less than zero.

 Addition Word Problem:

Question: A weather report shows that the

temperature in one city is 5 ∘𝐶 and in another city
is −3 ∘C. What is the difference in temperature
between the two cities?
 Subtraction Word Problem:

Question: A runner covers a distance of 7 kilometers

in one hour and then covers a distance of 5
kilometers in the next hour. What is the difference in
the distances covered?
 Property of Integers

Closure Property

Commutative Property

Associative Property
 Closure property
Integers are closed under addition and subtraction.
This means that when you add or subtract two
integers, the result is always an integer.

For example 5+3 = 8 and 7-4=3.

 Closure property of integers :
under subtraction
under addition
The sum of any two integers The difference between any two
will always be an integer, i.e. if a integers will always be an integer, i.e. if
and b are any two integers, a + a and b are any two integers, a – b will
b will be an integer. be an integer.

Example: Example:
(-8) + 6 = -2 19 – 6 = 13
Question 1: Is the result of 8−5 an integer?
 Question: Sam has 8 apples, and his friend gives him 5
more apples. How many apples does Sam have in total? Is
the total an integer?
Question: Riya has −3 dollars, and she finds −2 dollars
more in her pocket. How much money does she have in
total? Is the total an integer?
Under multiplication
Any two integers’ product will be an
integer, i.e. if a and b are any two
integers, ab will also be an integer.
Example: 3 × (-9) = -27
(–7) × (-9) = 63
Under division
Division of integers doesn’t follow the
closure property since the quotient of
any two integers a and b, may or may
not be an integer. Sometimes the
quotient is undefined (when the divisor
is 0).
Example: -16 ÷ 4 = -4 (an integer)
(−4) ÷ (−16) = 1/4 (not an integer)
Question 1: Is the result of 8÷4 an integer?
Question 2: Is the result of −10÷5 an integer?
Commutative Property

when two numbers are added or

multiplied together, then a change in
their positions does not change the
result.
 Commutative Property of integers
Commutative Property of Addition Commutative Property of Multiplication

when we add two integers, the when we multiply two integers,

answer will remain unchanged the answer we get after

multiplication will remain the
even if the position of the
same, even if the position of the
numbers are changed.
integers are interchanged.

A+B=B+A AxB=BxA
Question 1: Does −2+5 equal 5+(−2)?
Question 3: Is 17×3 the same as 3×17? Verify your
answer.
Question 4: Does −4×16 equal 16×(−4)?
Associative Property
The Associative Property states that the way
numbers are grouped in addition or
multiplication does not change their sum or
product. In other words, for any numbers a, b,
and c :

EXAMPLE EXAMPLE
2 + (5 + 6) = (2 + 5) + 6 2 × (5 × 6) = (2 × 5) × 6
2 + 11 = 7 + 6 2 × 30 = 10 × 6
13 = 13 60 = 60
Question 1: Verify if (2+3)+4 is the same as 2+(3+4).
Question 2: Check if (−1+5)+6 equals −1+(5+6).
Question 3: Verify if (2×3)×4 is the same as 2×(3×4).
 Multiplication Word Problem:

Question: A farmer has 4 fields. In each field, he plants

3 rows of apple trees, and each row has 2 trees. How
many apple trees does he have in total?
 Mixed Operations Word Problem:

Question: A construction company is building 3 houses. Each

house requires 4 weeks of construction, and each week
requires 5 workers. How many workers are needed in total
for all 3 houses for 4 weeks?
 HOMEWORK

Kamla has gone for a hiking trip.She ended a

hike at an elevation of 5,000 feet above sea
level. She had started at an elevation of 5,000
feet above sea level. Which integer represents
Kamla 's change in elevation?
