2. Understanding Integers
1. What is a positive number?
It’s a number greater than zero. *
* Represented with a + or no sign
2. What is a negative number?
2. It’s a number less than zero.
* Always written with a - sign
3. The same number with a different sign
* They are the same distance from 0 but are on different sides of 0
3. What are opposites?
4. Show opposites on a number line:

3. Tips: Understanding Integers 5. What are integers?
5. Integers are the set of all whole numbers and their opposite
6. What is absolute value?
6. An integer’s distance from 0 * Represented by I n I * Never negative * Always positive
Tips:
Absolute values are never negative
Negatives are always less than positives
Opposites are the same # but one is + and one is --

4. 4 -3 -1 Graphing Opposites. Graph the integer and it’s opposite:
Is it positive or negative? Write the integer:
A. I owe my friend $10.00
B. I live 100 feet above sea level
C. It’s 20 degrees below zero outside
D. I gained 15 yards in my football game
Graphing Opposites. Graph the integer and it’s opposite: 4 -3 -1 .

5. Write the absolute value of:
1. I-2I =
2. I0I =
3. I5I =
4. I-4I =
5. I-1I =

7. L.L. Left is less Comparing and Ordering Integers
1. How do I compare integers?
Use a number line.
* Numbers to the left are less than number to the right
2. Compare the following integers:
3. How do I order integers?
3. GRAPH them on a number line, then order them.
Order: 2, -4, -1, 5, 0

8. TIPS: Comparing and Ordering Integers
4. Graph then order the following integers greatest to least:
, -2, 1, -4, -1, 3
5. Graph and order the same integers least to greatest.
, -2, 1, -4, -1, 3
_____________________________________________
TIPS:
* Use a # line to compare or order integers
L.L. = LEFT IS LESS

10. Solving Word Problems 1. How do I solve word problems?
1. 1. Read the problem until you understand what the question is.
2. List the important information
3. Make a plan: how are you going to solve the problem? Draw pictures, diagrams, etc. if necessary
4. Solve the problem

12. Ordering and Comparing Decimals:
1. What are the place values for decimals?
2 = hundreds place
0 = tens place
4 = ones place
9 = tenths place
8 = hundredths place
6 = thousandths place

13. Ordering and Comparing Decimals:
2. How do I say a decimal number?
2. Always say the decimal as “and”
Say the number the same way you would if it wasn’t a decimal, then say the place value of the last digit
Example: =
Eighty two and thirty four hundredths
3. Line up all the decimals then compare each column left to right
Example:
3. How do I compare decimals?
3 is greater than 1 so
2.014 < 2.03

14. Ordering and Comparing Decimals:
4. How do I order decimals?
3. Line up all the decimals then compare each column left to right
Example: 2.4, 1.9, (L --> G)
