Adding Integers
• Adding Rule #1 • Adding Rule #2
– If the signs are the same, – If the signs are
add as you normally do. DIFFERENT, pretend the
signs aren’t there.
– Keep the same sign.
– Subtract the smaller
from the larger one.
• 5 + 8 = 13 – Keep the sign of the
• -8 + -17 = -25 number with the
GREATEST Absolute
Value.

• 19 + -11 = 8
• 24 + -86 = -62
3 Steps to
Subtract Integers
• Keep
– Keep the 1st number
• Change
– Subtraction sign to Addition
• Opposite
– Write down the opposite of the 2nd number

• Then add the way you normally do.


-9 – 14 =
Keep Change Opposite

-9 - - 14 = -23
Now follow the adding integers rules.
Practice…
1. -7 – 15 = -22

2. 23 – 98 = -75
3. -48 - -13 = -35
4. 5 - -6 = 11

5. 17 – 8 = 9
