Mathematics
Integer Subtraction is a Grade 7 mathematics worksheet that helps students practise working with signed numbers in integer calculations. The 12 multiple-choice questions ask students to evaluate expressions and select the correct result, including calculations such as 20 + (-6) = 14. This format gives students repeated practice applying integer rules and checking whether their answer has the correct sign and value. Use this worksheet for guided practice, independent work, homework, or a short formative assessment after introducing integer operations. Reviewing the answer choices can help teachers identify whether students are confusing positive and negative signs or selecting an answer without evaluating the expression. This free printable worksheet includes a complete answer key for efficient checking and feedback.

FAQs
What does this Integer Subtraction worksheet help students practise?
This Grade 7 mathematics worksheet gives students 12 multiple-choice opportunities to evaluate integer expressions and apply signed-number rules. Items such as 20 + (-6) require students to determine how a negative number affects the result, strengthening accuracy with integer calculations and sign selection.
How can I use this worksheet to teach integer subtraction?
First model how to evaluate a signed-number expression, using a number line or counters to show why adding a negative changes the value. Then have students solve the multiple-choice items independently and explain why the correct option has both the right value and sign. Use distractors to discuss common sign errors before assigning the remaining questions for practice.
What mistakes should I watch for on this integer subtraction worksheet?
Watch for students who ignore the negative sign, treat a negative number as positive, or choose an answer based only on the numbers’ magnitudes. In an item such as 20 + (-6), students may incorrectly select 26 instead of recognizing that adding a negative reduces the value to 14. Ask them to write the operation in words or model it on a number line when their sign is incorrect.
How do I assign and grade this Integer Subtraction worksheet?
Wayground provides this worksheet as a printable PDF and as a digital quiz, and it includes a complete answer key for all 12 multiple-choice questions. You can grade printable submissions by scanning student work with the Wayground for Teachers app, or review responses through the digital quiz.
