What the Heck’s an Integer?

Integers are positive and negative “whole” numbers.

When we multiply or divide integers, there are just a couple of rules we

need to remember.

Multiplying Integers

Whenever we multiply two integers with “like” signs, the answer is

always positive.

−𝟓×(−𝟐)=𝟏𝟎

Multiplying Integers

Whenever we multiply two integers with “unlike” signs, the answer is

always negative.

Dividing Integers

Whenever we divide two integers with “like” signs, the answer is always

positive.

¿𝟏𝟔÷𝟒=𝟒

(−)÷(−)=+¿−𝟏𝟐÷ (−𝟒)=𝟑

always negative.

or divide more thantwo integers

at once?

Multiplying and Dividing IntegersAn expression with an even number of

negative integers will always produce a positive answer.

An expression with an odd number of negative integers will always produce a

negative answer.

Let’s take a look at a few examples!

Multiplying and Dividing IntegersExample 1:

−𝟐× (−𝟑 )×𝟒× (−𝟐 )=¿

Since there are 3 negative integers (an odd amount), the answer will be negative.

−𝟐× (−𝟑 )×𝟒× (−𝟐 )=¿

Then, multiply from left to right to find the product.

−𝟒𝟖

Multiplying and Dividing IntegersExample 2:

−𝟑𝟐÷𝟐÷𝟒÷ (−𝟐 )=¿

2 negative integers (an even amount) result in a positive quotient.

Divide from left to right to simplify.

𝟐−𝟑𝟐÷𝟐÷𝟒÷ (−𝟐 )=¿

Multiplying and Dividing IntegersExample 3:

𝟐𝟓÷(−𝟓)×𝟒÷ (−𝟒 )×(−𝟐)×(−𝟕)

4 negative integers produce apositive answer.

Multiply and divide from left to right to simplify.

¿𝟕𝟎

Multiplying and Dividing Integers

That’s it! An even number of negative signs equals a positive answer, and an odd number equals a negative answer.

So I justcount negative

signs to determine the sign of my

answer?

Then Ijust multiply ordivide from left

to right?
