Adding Integers

Remember to add when signs are the same

Remember to subtract when signs are different

Adding Integers With the Same Sign

• Just add the numbers

• Keep the sign of the numbers

Adding Integers with Different Signs

• You really have to subtract

• Use the sign of the number with the highest absolute value for your answer

• ex: -10 + 8 = (-2)

• ex. #2: 10 + (-8) = 2
