This document discusses integers and negative numbers. It provides examples of integers like -5, 1, 5 which are whole numbers that can be positive, negative or zero. Non-integers include numbers with fractions like 1 3/4. Negative numbers are used to represent temperatures below zero on a thermometer, depths below sea level, and amounts owed. Key rules for adding and subtracting negative numbers include using FASST (First Add Same Signs Together) if the signs are the same, and SID (Subtract If Different) if the signs are different. Multiplying a positive by a negative yields a negative result, while multiplying two negatives yields a positive result.

Negative Numbers
Learning Objective To understand whole numbers on the number line What is an Integer? An integer is a whole number (not a fractional number) that can be positive, negative, or zero.
Examples of integers are: -5, 1, 5, 8, 97, and
3,043.
Examples of numbers that are not integers
are: -1.43, 1 3/4, 3.14, Examples • Can anyone think of examples of where you would see negative numbers?? Freezing Point and Minus Temperatures
The temperature keeps going down below zero degrees to 1degree below zero then 2 degrees below zero and so on.
These numbers below
zero are negative numbers Thermometer • A thermometer measures temperature.
• To measure the temperature you have to read off the scale – the numbers along the side.
• Look at where the liquid
inside the thermometer is against the scale. A UK Weather Map

• A number line can be useful for working
with negative numbers Negative Positive 0
Copy this number line into your book and write in
numbers from -20 to +20 Adding and Subtracting. Subtract
-7 -6 -5 -4 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
We are going to use the number line above to calculate the
sum below:
6 – 10 = (1) Start at the number 6 (2) To subtract go left from 6. (3) Move 10 left.
–2–3= -5 What Goes In The Box ? Complete the questions below yourself:
(1) 6 – 8 = -2 (6) 7 – 12 = -5
(2) – 2 + 6 = 4 (7) – 7 + 12 = 5
(3) – 5 + 7 = 2 (8) – 6 + 6 = 0
(4) –4 + 8 = 4 (9) – 2 – 5 = -7
(5) –1 – 6 = -7 (10) – 2 + 7 – 8 = -3 What Goes In The Box ? Part 2 Complete these questions using a bigger number line if required:
(1) 12 – 16 = -4 (6) 72 – 120 = - 48
(2) – 32 + 26 = -6 (7) – 34 + 52 = 18
(3) – 35 + 43 = 8 (8) – 36 + 26 = -10
(4) –14 +28 = 14 (9) – 42 – 57 = -99
(10) – 29 + 73 – 89 = -45 (5) –18 – 52 = -70 What goes In The Box ? Part 3 Work backwards here to work out the missing numbers.
(1) – 6 + 18 = 12
(2) -13 + 10 = –3
(3) 12 – 34 = – 22
(4) -11 – 14 = – 25
(5) 22 – 39 = – 17 I would like to introduce you to…
FASST and
SID FASST
First Add Same Signs Together
+ 8 - - 6 = 14 Look at the signs in the middle, if they are the same, then replace them with + SID
Subtract If Different - 8 + - 6 =2 Look at the signs in the middle, if they are different, then replace them with - So, who we do we need to help us work out these calculations?
FASST or SID 16 – (-4) = 20 47 + (-4) = 43 4 + (-4) = 0 122 – (-4) = 126 But what about this one? Can you use all your knowledge of negative numbers so far to find the answer to these calculations?
-6 + (-2) = 8 -
-6 - (-8) = 2 Remember: This is your start number and the new sign in the middle is the direction Adding and Subtracting Negative Numbers a) 8 + - 3 = 5 f) -4 + - 7 = -11
b) 9 - + 5 = 4 g) -1 - - 6 =5
c) 2 - - 9 = 11 h) -3 + 9 =6
d) 3 + - 4 = -1 i) -7 – 4 = -11
e) 10 + - 16 = -6 j) -12 + - 11 = -23 Multiplying a Positive Times A Negative.
Consider the sum below :
This sum means 5 lots of -3
5 × -3 = = -3 -3 -3 -3 -3 Examples : Try These.
-8 = -15 (1) 2 × -4= In other words : - 30 (2) - 5 × 6= - 21 5 × -3 (3) - 7 × 3= = -15 Rule 1: A plus times a minus or a minus times a plus makes a minus. Multiplying a negative times a negative. Complete the number pattern below:
- 20 -4× 5= Rule 2 : A negative times a negative or a - 16 positive times a positive makes a positive. -4× 4= - 12 -4× 3= Look at the pattern Examples: Try These -8 -4× 2= -4 (1) – 2 × -5= 10 -4× 1 = 0 (2) – 3 × - 6 = 18 -4× 0 = (3) 4 × 8 = 32 4 -4× -1 = (4) – 6 × - 7 = 42
