Lesson 6: Integers

Integers

are whole counting numbers
(positive) and their opposite

(negative), including zero which
is neither positive nor negative

Counting numbers

The natural numbers are those
numbers used for counting and

ordering. Counting number is also

known as positive numbers.

Whole numbers

A number without fractions; an integers

Integers are

Additive Inverse

● Additive inverse is a property of

integers where if opposite

numbers are added, then their

sum will be zero.

Examples

-4 + 4 = 0
5 + (-5) = 0
8 + (-8) = 0

Multiple Choice

What is the additive inverse of 6

• 6

• -6

Multiple Choice

What is the additive inverse of -12

• 12

• -12

Opposites are integers on opposite

sides of a number line which have the

same distance from zero.

How to read the numbers?

1. +5 - Positive Five

2. -5 - Negative Five

3. 5 - Five or Positive Five

Examples

We can use integers to represent real-
life situations. We usually denote what
is good, above or to right as positive
and those are bad, below or to the left

as negative

Example

● Deposit of Php 1500
● Withdrawal of Php 850

●Profit of Php769

Arranging

In arranging the integers on
the number line, makes sure

that you follow the right
position of the integers in

the number line.

Ascending

ascending order means the process of
arranging numbers from smallest to
largest from left to right.

Example

Descending

descending order means to arrange

them from largest to smallest.
Example

-54, 65, 32, 0, -101
Descending order
65, 32, 0, -54, -101
