2.2 Addition and Subtraction of Integers
Addition of IntegersA
1. Addition of Integers is a process of finding the sum of two or more integers.
2. Addition an Integers to a positive integer can be represented using a number line by a movement towards the positive direction, which means from left to right.
-2 -1 0 1 2
+4For example, -2 + 4 = 2
3. Adding an integer to a negative integer can be represented using a number line by a movement towards the negative direction, which means from right to left
-2 -1 0 1 2
-4
For example, 2 +(-4)=-2
4. Integers with like signs are integers with the same sign.
For exampl
e 2 and 5
-8 and -12
5. Integers with unlike signs are integers with different signs.
For example
-4 and 10
3 and -9
1 +

Subtraction of IntegersB
1. Subtraction of integers is a process of finding the difference between two integers.2. The difference between two integers is the number of steps required to move from the second integer to reach the first integer on a number line.
((
• If you move to the right, you will get a positive integer.
For example, -3 – (-8) = 5
-8 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3
+5
• If you move to the left, you will get a negative integer.
For example, -8 – (-3) = -5
-8 -7 -6 -5 -4 -3
-5
3. To perform a subtraction involving three integers, always work out from left to right.
Example
Simplify 8- (-4) – 3.Solution 8- (-4) – 3 = 8 + 4 –
3 = 12 – 3 = 9
Example
In the morning, the temperature of a city was -3 °C. Its temperature then dropped by 5 °C in the afternoon. At night, its temperature dropped by another 4 °C. Find the temperature of the city at night.
Solution
-3 -5 -4 = -8 - 4 = -12
Therefore, the temperature of the city at night was - 12 °C

2.3 Multiplication and Division of Integers
Multiplying integers
A
1. Rules for multiplication of two integers:1. Determine the sign of the
product. (+) × (+) = (+)(-) × (-) = (+)(+) × (-) = (-)(-) × (+) = (-)
2. Multiply the whole numbers.
(a)
Example
Find the product of the following.(a) -4 × 3
Solution
(a) -4 × 3= - (4 × 3)= -12
(b) -8 × (-7)
Solution
(b) -8 × (-7) = + (8 ×
7)= 56
2. When multiplying three integers, we work from left to right.
Example
Calculate the following.(a) -2 × 3 × (-5)
Solution
(a) -2 × 3 × (-5) = -6 × (-5)
= 30
(b) -6 × (-4) × (-3)
Solution
(a) -6 × (-4) × (-3)
= 24 × (-3)= -72
Example
The temperature in a refrigerator decreases 2 °C every hour. If the temperature now is 0 °C, find its temperature (a)3 hours later,(b) 4 hours earlier.
Solution
(a) -2 × (+3) = -6 °C Therefore, the temperature 3 hours later is -6 °C.
(b) -2 × (-4) = 8 °C Therefore, the temperature 4 hours earlier was 8 °C.
