Mastering Integer Addition and Subtraction

This video tutorial covers the basics of adding and subtracting integers. It explains how to add integers with the same sign by adding their absolute values and keeping the sign. For integers with different signs, it demonstrates subtracting the smaller absolute value from the larger and using the sign of the number further from zero. The tutorial also introduces the LCO method for subtraction, which involves rewriting subtraction as addition. Real-world examples, such as temperature changes and bank transactions, are used to illustrate these concepts.
