Rules

The document outlines the basic rules for adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing integers. It states that for addition and subtraction, integers with the same sign are added and integers with different signs are subtracted. For multiplication, integers with the same sign are always positive and integers with different signs are always negative. Similarly, for division integers with the same sign are always positive and integers with different signs are always negative. Examples are provided to illustrate each rule.

8 + 4 = 12 8 + 4 = 12
- + - = - - + - = -
-8 + (-4) = -12 -8 + (-4) = -12
adding same sign, add the number and use the common adding same sign, add the number and use the common

- + + = - + + =
+ + - = + + - =
-8 + 4 = -4 -8 + 4 = -4
8 + (-4) = 4 8 + (-4) = 4
adding different sign, subtract the number and use the sign adding different sign, subtract the number and use the sign
of the bigger number of the bigger number

Rules in Subtracting Integers Rules in Subtracting Integers


copy – change – change copy – change – change
cope the minuend, change the operation to plus, change cope the minuend, change the operation to plus, change
the sign of the subtrahend and proceed to addition the sign of the subtrahend and proceed to addition

example: example:
8 - (-4) = 8 - (-4) =
8 + 4 = 12 8 + 4 = 12
-8 – 4 = -8 – 4 =
-8 + (-4) = -12 -8 + (-4) = -12
-8 – (-4) = -8 – (-4) =
-8 + 4 = -4 -8 + 4 = -4

example: example:
1 • 2 = 2 1 • 2 = 2
-1 • -2 = 2 -1 • -2 = 2
1 • -2 = -2 1 • -2 = -2
-1 • 2 = -2 -1 • 2 = -2

same sign, always positive same sign, always positive
different sign, always negative different sign, always negative
example: example:
4 / 2 = 2 4 / 2 = 2
-4 / -2 = 2 -4 / -2 = 2
4 / -2 = -2 4 / -2 = -2
