GROUP ACTIVITY

Integers

Are positive and negative

whole number.

Are the set of whole numbers

and their opposites.

Rules in Operations of
Integers

Addition/ Subtraction (same rules)

Rule 1: Same sign Add Sign of number
Rule 2: Unlike sign Subtract = Sign of
biggest number

Multiplication/Division (same rules)

Rule 1: Same sign = Positive sign

Rule 2: unlike sign = Negative sign

Addition/ Subtraction (same rules)

Rule 1: Same sign Add

Sign of number
Examples: A. 7+ 3 = 10
B. -3 - 4 = -7

Addition/ Subtraction
(same rules)

Rule 2: Unlike sign

Subtract = Sign of biggest
number
Examples:

A. 7+ (-3) = 4

B. -25+ 5= -20

Multiplication/Division
(same rules)

Rule 1: Same sign = Positive

sign
Example: A. (-2) (-3) = 6
(2) (3) = 6
B. 12 / 4 = 3
-12/-4 = 3

Multiplication/Division
(same rules)

Rule 2: Unlike sign =

Negative sign
Example: A. (-22) (2) = -44
B. 12/-4 = -3

Problem 1
Mother lost 3 pounds
when she was ill. After
recovering, she gained 11
pounds and then lost 5
pounds. How much weight
did she finally lose or gain?

Problem 2

went down 2 floors; went up
1 floor; and went down 2
floors. On which floor did
the elevator stop?
