Exploring Integer Operations Rules

The video tutorial explains the rules for addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. It covers how to handle operations with same and different signs, and introduces the concept of subtraction as adding the opposite. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of using models to justify mathematical rules, helping students understand and apply them logically.
