 Introduction of the Topic

Lesson 1 : Absolute Value

Absolute Value is defined as the distance of a number from zero on the number line. It
tells us how far a number is from zero.

MA. LOURDES G. SARABIA

RENZ REMON E. BALUTE
MATH 7 QUARTER 1 WEEK 3 P a g e 4 | 15
 "6" is 6 units away from zero, and "−6"
is also 6 units away from zero.
So, the absolute value of 6 is 6, and
the absolute value of −6 is also 6
Examples:
1. Use the number line to represent and find the absolute value of -5

2. Use the number line to represent and find the absolute value of 7
3. What is the absolute value of -25?
Answer: 25 (because -25 is 25 units away from zero.)

Absolute Value Symbol

The symbol for absolute value is denoted as | |. For example, instead of writing “the
absolute value of -8”, we can just write it as |−8|

More examples:
 |-1| = 1
 |1.5| =1.5
 |-35| = 35
 |25| = 25

Opposite Numbers
Opposite numbers have the same absolute values. It means they have the same distance
from zero. Opposite numbers are also known as additive inverses

Example:

-4 and 4 are opposite numbers, and also called as additive inverses.

Examples of additive inverses:

⮚ 1 and −1 ⮚ and
25
⮚ 5 and −5 ⮚ and
⮚ 10 and −10
⮚ −1.5 and
1.5
⮚ 8 and −8 −333 and 333
⮚
⮚ 0.75 and −0.75 0 and 0

*The sum of the additive inverses is zero.

Lesson 2 : Fundamental Operations on Integers

In this lesson you will learn how to perform addition, subtraction, multiplication
and division of integers.

Definition:

Integers are set of numbers consisting of whole numbers (0,1,2,3,4,5,

and so on) and their negatives.

ADDITION OF INTEGERS
Let us use the number
line and the concept of
motion to understand
addition of integers.

Consider a point moving from one integer to another. A movement to the right means
positive and a movement to the left means negative.

To add 4 + 5, the point begins at 0, moves 4 units to the right then another 5 units to the
right. The point is at 9. Therefore, 𝟒 + 𝟓 = 𝟗

To add (-3) + (-7), the point starts at 0, moves 3 units to the left and another 7 units to the
left. The point reached -10. So, (-3) + (-7) = -10

How about (-10) + 8? From 0, move 10 units to the left then move 8 units to the right. You
will be at -2. So, (−𝟏𝟎) + 𝟖 = −𝟐

What about 7 + (-1)? Start from 0, move 7 units to the right then move 1 unit to the left. You
reached 6. Therefore, 𝟕 + (−𝟏) = 𝟔

From the examples above, can you now give the rules in addition of integers?

Addition of Integers
To add integers with like signs, add their absolute values then copy the common
sign.
To add integers with unlike signs, subtract their absolute values then copy
the sign of the integer with the greater absolute value.

Case 1: Adding Integers with Like Signs (+ , +) or (- , -)

Rule: Add the absolute values and copy the common sign.
+
Example 1: 4 + +6

Solution: Add their absolute values. So, 4 + 6 = 10. Copy the common sign. Therefore, the
answer is +10

Example 2: (−12) + (−5)

Solution: Add their absolute values. So, 12 + 5 = 17. Copy the common sign. Therefore, the
MA. LOURDES G. SARABIA
RENZ REMON E. BALUTE
MATH 7 QUARTER 1 WEEK 3 P a g e 6 | 15
 answer is -17
Example 3: (−16) + (−25)
Solution: Add their absolute values. So, 16 + 25 = 41. Copy the common sign. Therefore, the
answer is -41.
+
Example 4: 123 + +254

Solution: Add their absolute values. So, 123 + 254 = 377. Copy the common sign. Therefore,
the answer is +377

Case 2: Adding Integers with Unlike Signs (+ , -) or (- , +)

Rule: Subtract their absolute values and copy the sign of the number with greater
absolute value.
Example 1: 4 + (−6)
Solution: Subtract 6 and 4. So, 6 - 4= 2. Copy the sign of -6 since it is the number with
bigger absolute value. Therefore, the answer is −𝟐

Example 2: (−10) + 7

Solution: Subtract 10 and 7. So, 10 - 7= 3. Copy the sign of -10 since it is the number with
greater absolute value. Therefore, the answer is −𝟑
Example 3: (−15) + 37

Solution: Subtract 37 and 15. So, 37 – 15 = 22. Copy the sign of 37 since it is the number
with greater absolute value. Therefore, the answer is 22
Example 4: 28 + (−13)

Solution: Subtract 28 and 13. So, 28 – 13 = 15. Copy the sign of 28 since it is the number
with higher absolute value. Therefore, the answer is 15
Example 5: 59 + (−82)

Solution: Subtract 82 and 59. So, 82 – 59 = 23. Copy the sign of −82 since it is the number
with greater absolute value. Therefore, the answer is −𝟐𝟑

SUBTRACTION OF INTEGERS

We know that 3 and -3 are opposites and so are -5 and 5. Another term for
opposites is additive inverses.
Subtraction of Integers
If a and b are both integers then,
𝑎 − 𝑏 = 𝑎 + (−𝑏)
This means that to subtract integer from another integer, add the opposite or
additive inverse of the second integer to the first integer.
Example 1: 𝟖 − (−𝟔)
= 𝟖 + (+𝟔) Change the operation (-) to (+), then write the additive
inverse of the subtrahend (change -6 to +6)
= 14 Apply the rule in adding integers
Therefore, 𝟖 − (−𝟔) = 𝟏𝟒

MA. LOURDES G. SARABIA

RENZ REMON E. BALUTE
MATH 7 QUARTER 1 WEEK 3 P a g e 7 | 15
 Example 2: 5 − 8
= 5 + (−8) Change the operation (-) to (+), then write the additive
inverse of the subtrahend (change 8 to -8)
= -3 Apply the rule in adding integers
Therefore, 𝟓 − 𝟖 = −𝟑

Example 3: −10 − (−4)

= −10 + (+4) Change the operation (-) to (+), then write the additive
inverse of the subtrahend (change -4 to +4)
= -6 Apply the rule in adding integers
Therefore, −𝟏𝟎 − (−𝟒) = −𝟔

Example 4: −15 − (−25)

= −15 + (+25) Change the operation (-) to (+), then write the additive
inverse of the subtrahend (change -25 to +25)
= +10 Apply the rule in adding integers
Therefore, −𝟏𝟓 − (−𝟐𝟓) = 𝟏𝟎

Example 5: −12 − 24
= −12 + (−24) Change the operation (-) to (+), then write the additive
inverse of the subtrahend (change 24 to -24)
= −36 Apply the rule in adding integers
Therefore, −𝟏𝟐 − 𝟐𝟒 = −𝟑𝟔

MULTIPLICATION AND DIVISION OF INTEGERS

Multiplication and Division of Integers follow the same rule.
Rule:
In multiplying or dividing two integers having the same signs, the product or
quotient is ALWAYS POSITIVE.
In multiplying or dividing two integers having different signs, the product or
quotient is ALWAYS NEGATIVE.

MULTIPLICATION OF INTEGERS
Examples:

Same Signs Different Signs

1. 3 × 2 = 6 1. (-5)(7) = -35
2. (-5)(-4) = 20 2. (15)(-3) = -45
3. (-10)(-3) = 30 3. (8)(-5) = -40
4. 8 ∙ 7 = 56 4. (-11)(10) = -110

Note: The symbol (⋅), (×), or (∗) between two mathematical expressions denotes the multiplication.
Sometimes we also use parentheses rather than the other mentioned symbols. An example for

 that would be -2(-4) or (-2)(-4).

DIVISION OF INTEGERS Examples:

Same Signs Different Signs

1. 12÷3 = 4 1. (-15)÷3 = -5
2. (-35)÷(-7) = 5 2. (35)÷(-5) = -7
3. (-120)÷(-5) = 24 3. (-120)÷10 = -12
4. 64÷4 =16 4. 64÷(-8) = -8

⮚ Absolute value describes the distance of a number from 0 on the number

line. ⮚ The absolute value of a number is never negative.

⮚ Opposite numbers have the same distance from zero. They have the same absolute values.

⮚ Opposite numbers are called additive inverses.
