The set of positive whole integers, their opposites, and zero are included in the set of
integers, which is also known as signed numbers.
Let us illustrate integers using number line.
In a number line, the value of a number increases as you move from left to the right while it
decreases as you move from right to left.
2
To arrange integers in ascending order, begin with the least in value and end with the
greatest in value while in descending order, begin with the greatest in value and end with the
least in value.
Let’s Recall
PROCESS QUESTIONS:
The opposite of ─17 is 17. Opposite numbers have the same distance from 0 but have different
signs. The opposite of a number is also called its additive inverse. So, the additive inverse
of 7 is ─7.
3
Let’s Explore
Activity 2: Find Me!
Direction: Determine the distance of the following:
A B C D E
Let’s Elaborate
The absolute value of a number is the distance between that number and zero on the
number line. It is denoted by two bars, |𝑎|, where a is a number.
2. | − 33|
To find the distance of a negative number from 0, get its additive inverse.
Therefore, the answer is 33.
3. |0|
The distance of 0 to itself is 0.
Therefore, the answer is 0.
4
Try This!
Evaluate the following:
1. |-57| = ___ 2. |11| = ___ 3. |-17| = ___
After learning the absolute value, you are going to proceed with operations on integers.
ADDITION OF INTEGERS
Process Questions:
1. What integer did you use to represent 7 additional points?
2. What integer did you use to represent 3 demerit points?
3. What operation did you use to solve the given problem?
4. How many points does she have now?
Solution:
Now, let’s try to solve the problem above using counters.
Colored counters can be used to model this problem. Colored counters come in two
different colors, one for positive count and one for negative count. Two counters, a
negative and a positive is called zero pair.
─3
+7
There are 3 zero pairs to cancel. Three negative counters and three positive counters add
up to 0 leaving 4 positive counters
5
Study the next examples to discover the rules in adding integers.
Examples:
Perform the indicated operation using counters.
1. 3 + 4
Remember, use white counters for positive numbers
+ =
3 4 7
There is no zero pair to cancel. There are 7 white counters in all.
Therefore, 3 + 4 = 7.
2. −2 + (−3)
+ =
−2 −3 −5
There is no2 zero pair to cancel. 2 2 in all.
There are 5 black counters
Therefore, −2 + (−3) = −5
3. Jhared dives to a depth of 4 meters to look for corals and some fishes. He goes deeper
to a point that is 4 meters lower. At what depth is he in now?
Solution: Use colored counters to model this problem.
(Note that below sea level is represented by a negative number)
Try This!
Add the following using colored counters.
1. 7 + 5 2. −3 + −5 3. 7 + (−4)

SUBTRACTION OF INTEGERS
In Aika’s house, it is a practice to buy your own cellphone load from your allowance. Her
mother sells the load. If Aika has ₱15 but she bought ₱20 worth of load to her mother, how
much was left Aika?
Process Questions:
1. What integer will represent the money of Aika?
2. What integer will represent the worth of load she bought?
3. What operation is needed to answer the given problem?
4. How much was left for Aika?
5. Does she owe money to her mother? by how much?
Solution:
Let’s represent the problem using colored counters. White for how much Aika has and
white for how much load she bought. However, you have to subtract values.
Notice that Aika’s money is not enough to pay for the load. In this case, we can add
zero pairs. Adding zero pairs will not change the value of the given. Add 5 zero pairs.
The operation to use is subtraction. From here, you can remove the same color of counters.
Notice that what remains are the 5 black counters.
Examples:
Perform the indicated operations using the counters.
7
Now, we are left with 2 white counters,
therefore, 4 − 2 = 2
3.) 4 − 6 4.) −5 − 2
Solution: Solution:
Remove 6 white counters (positive) from 4 Remove 2 white counters (positive) from 5
white counters (positive). However, there is not black counters (negative). However, we
enough white counters to remove 6. In this can’t do that. Therefore, we are going to
case, add zero pairs. Since adding zeros won’t use zero pairs again. We must have 2
change the value of any number. So, we add pairs of zero counters in order for us to
to zero pairs so that we can remove 6 white remove 2 white counters completely.
counters completely.
Process Questions:
1. How do we subtract integers with the same signs?
2. How do we subtract integers with different signs?
3. What should be consider in determining the sign of the final answer?
Subtraction Of Integers
To subtract a signed number, add its additive inverse.
For any real numbers x and y:
𝑥 − (−𝑦) = 𝑥 + (+𝑦)
𝑥 − (+𝑦) = 𝑥 + (−𝑦)
Observe that as the operation changes, the subtrahend’s sign changes as well.
Try This!
Perform the indicated operations using the counters then verify using the rule in
subtracting integers
.
1. 5 − 7 Solution: 5 − 7 = 5 + ( −7) = −2
2. −8 − (−3)
3. 9 − (−4)
MULTIPLICATION OF INTEGERS
8
In the Month of October, there are 3 fewer days compared to other months because of the
holidays and bad weather. What will be the effect of the fewer school days on his budget
for meal?
Process Questions:
1. What integer represents the amount spent for meal allowance?
2. What integer represents the number of fewer days in August?
3. What operation is needed to answer the given problem?
4. What will be the effect of the fewer school days on his budget?
5. How do you spend your allowance? Were you able to save some?
Solution:
His meal consumption shows a decrease on Franco’s budget. Therefore, let’s
represent this amount spent for meal as −₱25.
The school days without classes can also be represented by −3 which shows that
there are 3 fewer days than the usual.
Hence, (−₱25)( −3) = ₱75
The product is positive for the amount was saved rather than spent.
Multiplication of Integers
The product of two integers with the same sign is positive.
The product of two integers with different signs is negative.
Example:
1. Solve: 6 × (−3)
Solution:
To solve the problem, multiply the numbers: 6 multiplied by 3 is 18.
Since the two numbers have different signs, the sign of the answer is negative.
Therefore, 6 × (−3 ) = −18.
2. Solve: −16 × 4
Solution:
To solve the problem, multiply the numbers: 16 multiplied by 4 is 64.
Since the two numbers have different signs, the sign of the answer is negative.
Therefore, −16 × 4 = −64.
3. Solve: (−18) × (−9)
Solution:
To solve the problem, multiply the numbers: 18 multiplied by 9 is 162.
Since the two numbers have the same signs, the sign of the answer is positive.
Therefore, (−18) × (−9) = 162.
9
Repeat the process for −39 × 5, multiply the numbers: 39 multiplied by 5 is
195.
Since the two numbers have different signs, the sign of the answer is negative.
Therefore, −39 × 5 = −195.
Try This!
1. −19 × ( −5) 2. 26 × (−8) 3. [(−7 ) × (−9)] × 6
DIVISION OF INTEGERS
Division is the inverse of multiplication for non-zero whole numbers. Therefore,
the following equations are TRUE.
a. 6 ÷ 2 = 3 since 3 × 2 = 6 c. −6 ÷ 2 = −3 since −3 × 2 = −6
Process Questions:
1. What did you notice on the signs of the divisor and dividend of the example in (a)
and (b)? What is the sign of the quotient?
2. How about in example (c) and (d), what can you say about the signs of the divisor
and the dividend? What is the sign of the final answer?
Since there is an equivalent division statement of every multiplication of non-zero whole
number, then the rule of division of integers is the same as the rule for multiplication of
integers.
Division of Integers
The quotient of two integers with the same sign is positive.
The quotient of two integers with different signs is negative.
Try This!
Solve the following:
1. (−48) ÷ 6 2. 33 ÷ (−3) 3. (−54) ÷ (−9)
Let’s Remember
The absolute value of a number is the distance between that number and zero
on the number line. It is denoted by two bars, |𝑎|, where a is a number.
To add integers with the same sign, add their absolute values and copy the
common sign in the answer.
To add integers with different signs, get the difference between their
absolute values and copy the sign of the integer with the greater absolute
value.
To subtract a signed number, add its additive inverse.
The product of two integers with the same sign is positive.
The product of two integers with different signs is negative.
The quotient of two integers with the same sign is positive.
The quotient of two integers with different signs is negative.
