Adding Integers with Different Signs

This video tutorial explains how to add integers with different signs by focusing on their absolute values. The process involves subtracting the smaller absolute value from the larger one and assigning the sign of the number with the larger absolute value to the result. Two examples are provided: adding 5 and -12, and adding -3 and 9, to demonstrate the method.

What is the key concept to focus on when adding integers with different signs?

• The absolute values of the integers

• The product of the integers

• The sum of the integers

• The difference between the integers
