 This single table records all possible
products(5x5)
 The table is symmetric(4x3=3x4)
 1X1 = 1
 2X2 = 4
 3X3 = 9
 4X4 = 16
 5X5 =25
 Understand the multiplication table and then
memorize it.
 Understanding 4 x 5 =20

Memorize :4x5=20
4x5=20
HOW TO MEMORIZE:
Read it/hear it/say it/THINK IT …repeat again

 Find the mystery number?

1. 4x ? = 12
2. ? X 3 = 15
 When we multiply or divide two integers, the sign
rules are different than when we add or subtract
signed numbers.
 When we multiply or divide two positive integers,
the solution is positive.

7 • 6 = 42
2 • 9 = 18
20 • 1 = 20
 When we multiply two negative integers, the
solution is also positive.

(-7) • (-6) = 42
(-2) • (-9) = 18
(-20) • (-1) = 20
 When we multiply one positive & one
negative integer, the solution is always
negative, regardless of which is larger or
which is written first.

(-7) • 6 = - 42 12 ÷ (-3) = - 4
2 • (-9) = -18 (-16) ÷ 8 = -2
20 • (-1) = -20 (-8) ÷ 8 = -1
Adding Integers:
Positive + Positive = Positive
Negative + Negative = Negative
Positive + Negative = Sign of Larger #
Subtracting Integers:
Keep - Change - Change
Multiplying:
Positive + Positive = Positive
Negative + Negative = Positive
Positive + Negative = Negative
