Adding and Subtracting integers

Adding and Subtracting integers

Learning Goal

I can add and subtract integers and list my steps in order.

Let's review what we learned about Adding and Subtracting integers.

• Adding integers can be solved using tiles, a number line or the rules.

• Subtracting integers can be solved using tiles, a number line or the rules.

• To find the sum means to add.

• To find the difference means to subtract

Adding integers rules

• Same sign, add and keep the sign.

• Different sign? Subtract and keep the sign of the # that is larger.

Subtracting integers rules

• Keep the first number.

• Change subtraction to addition.

• Change the sign of the last #

• Then follow the addition rules
