Understanding Integers
A Complete Guide for Class 6
Introduction to Integers • - Integers include positive numbers, negative numbers, and zero. • - Examples: • - Positive integers: 1, 2, 3... • - Negative integers: -1, -2, -3... • - Zero is neutral (neither positive nor negative). Representation on the Number Line • - Numbers are placed on a horizontal line. • - Positive integers are to the right of zero. • - Negative integers are to the left of zero. • - Example: • - ... -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3 ... Addition and Subtraction of Integers • - Addition: • - Same signs: Add absolute values and keep the sign. • - Different signs: Subtract smaller absolute value from larger, take the sign of the larger. • - Subtraction: • - Subtracting a number is the same as adding its opposite. • - Examples: Multiplication and Division of Integers • - Multiplication: • - Positive × Positive = Positive • - Negative × Negative = Positive • - Positive × Negative = Negative • - Division: • - Same rules as multiplication. • - Examples: • - (-3) × (-2) = 6 • - (-8) ÷ 4 = -2 Properties of Integers • - Commutative Property: • - Addition: a + b = b + a • - Multiplication: a × b = b × a • - Associative Property: • - (a + b) + c = a + (b + c) • - (a × b) × c = a × (b × c) • - Distributive Property: • - a × (b + c) = a × b + a × c • - Identity: Examples and Exercises • - Solve the following: • 1. 5 + (-7) = ? • 2. (-3) × (-4) = ? • 3. 10 ÷ (-2) = ? • 4. -6 - 3 = ? • - Answers: • 1. -2 • 2. 12 • 3. -5
