Four Fundamental Operations on Integers

ADDITION of Int egers

To add integers with the same sign, add the

two w/o regard to the signs. Then affix the
common sign of the integers.

• The sum of two positive integers is the sum of

their absolute values with a positive sign(+).

Positive + Positive = Positive

10 + 10 = 20

ADDITION of Int egers

• The sum of two negative integers is the sum of

their absolute values with negative sign(-).

Negative + Negative = Negative

(-10) + (-10) = -20

Four Fundamental Operations on Integers

ADDITION of Int egers

To add two integers with different signs, consider the distance

of each integer from zero. Subtract the shorter distance from
the longer distance. In the answer, use the sign of the number
farther from zero.

• The sum of two integers having opposite signs is the difference of

their absolute values with the sign of integer of greater absolute
value.

Positive + Negative = their difference

(-20) + 10 = -10
20 + (-10) = 10

ADDITION of Int egers

Examples:

5+3= 8
20 + 17 = 37
(-3) + (-6) =
-9
(-42) + (-30) =
-72
13 + (-82) =
-69

ADDITION of Int egers

REMEMBER!

If there are more than two addends in the problem the first
step to do is to combine addends with same signs and then
get the difference of their sums.

-14 + 22 + 8 + -16 = -14 + 16 + 22 + 8

= -30 + 30
=0
Four Fundamental Operations on Integers

S U BTRACTI O N o f I n t e g e r s

• Reverse operation of addition.

• In subtraction, we change the sign of the

integer which is to be subtracted
(subtrahend) and then add the first
integer (minuend)

If a-b = a + (-b)
a- (-b) = a + (+b)

S U BTRACTI O N o f I n t e g e r s

Examples:

-62- (-135) = -62 + 135 = 73

29 – 86 = 29 + (-86) = -57
43 – (-64) = 43 + 64 = 107
-7 – 6 = -7 + (-6) = -13
4 – (-5) = 4 + (+5) =9

M U LTI PLI CATI O N o f I n t e g e r s

When two integers have the same sign, their product is

the product of their absolute values with positive sign (+).

Positive x Positive = Positive

20 x 10 = 200

Negative x Negative = Positive

(-20) x (-10) = 200

M U LTI PLI CATI O N o f I n t e g e r s

When two integers having opposite signs, their

product is the product of their absolute values
with negative sign (-).

Positive x Negative = Negative

Negative x Positive = Negative

20 x (-10) = -200
(-20) x 10 = -200

M U LT I PLI CAT I O N o f I n t e g e r s

Examples:

(-10) x 8 = -80
(-5) x 7 = -35
(+6) x (+7) = (+42) or 42
(-12) x (-6) = (+72) or 72
(-3) x (-5) = (+15) or 15
Four Fundamental Operations on Integers

DIVISION of Integers

• Reverse of multiplication

The division of two integers having the same sign is the division
of their absolute value with a positive sign (+). If both the
integers have the same sign, then the quotient will be positive.

Positive ÷ Positive = Positive

20 ÷ 10 = 2

Negative ÷ Negative = Positive

(-20) ÷ (-10) = 200

DIVISION of Integers

If both integers have different signs, the

quotient will be negative (-).

Positive ÷ Negative = Negative

20 ÷ (-10) = (-2)

Negative ÷ Positive = Negative

(-20) ÷ 10 = (-2)

DIVISION of Integers

Examples:

(-10) ÷ 5 = -2
(-18) ÷ 3 = -6
(+12) ÷ (-3) = +4 or 4
(-24) ÷ (-12) = +12 or 12
(+9) ÷ (+3) = +3 or 3

hope that every problem has a
solution.
