Chapter 2
Multiplying and dividing integers

2. Learning Target
TSW multiply integers.

3. Multiplying Integers with Different Signs
The product of two integers with different signs is NEGATIVE.
POSITIVE x NEGATIVE = NEGATIVE
NEGATIVE x POSITIVE = NEGATIVE
Examples:
6(-4) = -24
-5(7) = -35

4. Multiplying Integers with the Same Sign
The product of two integers with the same sign is POSITIVE.
POSITIVE x POSITIVE = POSITIVE
NEGATIVE x NEGATIVE = POSITIVE
Examples:
2(6) = 12
-10(-6) = 60

5. Learning Target
TSW divide integers.

6. Dividing Integers with Different Signs
The quotient of two integers with different signs is NEGATIVE.
NEGATIVE ÷ POSITIVE = NEGATIVE
POSITIVE ÷ NEGATIVE = NEGATIVE
Examples:
33 ÷ (-11) = -3
-64 ÷ 8 = -8

7. Dividing Integers with the Same Sign
The quotient of two integers with the same sign is POSITIVE.
POSITIVE ÷ POSITIVE = POSITIVE
NEGATIVE ÷ NEGATIVE = POSITIVE
Examples:
15 ÷ 5 = 3
-64 ÷ (-8) = 8

8. Quick Recap of Rules for Operations with Integers
Add
Same Signs: Add absolute values. The sum has the same sign as the integers.
Different Signs: Subtract absolute values. The sum has the sign of the integer with the greater absolute value.
Subtract
To subtract an integer, add its opposite.
3. Multiply and Divide
Same Signs: The product or quotient is positive.
Different Signs: The product or quotient is negative.

9. POSITIVE X POSITIVE = POSITIVE
NEGATIVE X NEGATIVE = POSITIVE
POSITIVE X NEGATIVE = NEGATIVE
NEGATIVE X POSITIVE = NEGATIVE
