Numbers and operations / Integers and order of operations

Integers and the number line

The integers are the whole numbers and their opposites: $\dots, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, \dots$ . On a number line the numbers increase to the right, so any number is greater than every number to its left. That means $-2 > -7$ , because $-2$ sits further right, even though 7 is the larger digit.

The absolute value of a number is its distance from 0, written $\lvert n \rvert$ , so it is never negative. For example $\lvert -9 \rvert = 9$ and $\lvert 4 \rvert = 4$ . Two numbers with the same absolute value and different signs are opposites, and they add to 0.

To order integers, put the negatives first and ordered backwards by size: $-8 < -5 < -1 < 0 < 3$ . The negative number with the larger absolute value is the smaller number.

Adding and subtracting integers

When the signs match, add the absolute values and keep the sign: $-6 + (-4) = -10$ .

When the signs differ, subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger and keep the sign of the number with the larger absolute value: $-7 + 12 = 5$ and $3 + (-9) = -6$ .

Subtracting a number is the same as adding its opposite, which turns every subtraction into an addition:

\begin{aligned} -3 - (-8) &= -3 + 8 = 5 \\ 5 - 11 &= 5 + (-11) = -6 \end{aligned}

Multiplying and dividing integers

Two numbers with the same sign give a positive result, and two with different signs give a negative result. This holds for both multiplication and division.

(-4)(-6) = 24 \qquad (-5)(3) = -15 \qquad \frac{-36}{9} = -4 \qquad \frac{-28}{-7} = 4

A product of several factors is negative when an odd number of them are negative and positive when an even number are. So $(-2)(-3)(-5) = -30$ , but $(-2)(-3)(5) = 30$ . Zero times anything is 0, and division by 0 is undefined.

Properties of operations

These properties let you rearrange a calculation so that it is easier to do in your head.

Property	Statement	Example
Commutative	$a + b = b + a$ and $ab = ba$	$8 \times 25 = 25 \times 8$
Associative	$(a + b) + c = a + (b + c)$ , and the same for multiplication	$(17 + 38) + 62 = 17 + (38 + 62) = 117$
Distributive	$a(b + c) = ab + ac$	$7 \times 98 = 7(100 - 2) = 700 - 14 = 686$
Identity	$a + 0 = a$ and $a \times 1 = a$	$-15 + 0 = -15$
Inverse	$a + (-a) = 0$ and $a \times \frac{1}{a} = 1$ for $a \neq 0$	$9 \times \frac{1}{9} = 1$
Zero	$a \times 0 = 0$	$-412 \times 0 = 0$

Subtraction and division are not commutative or associative: $10 - 4 \neq 4 - 10$ , and $24 \div 6 \neq 6 \div 24$ . The distributive property works in reverse too, which is called factoring out a common factor: $6 \times 13 + 6 \times 7 = 6(13 + 7) = 120$ .

Order of operations

A calculation with several operations has one agreed value, because the operations are done in a fixed order:

Work inside parentheses (and other grouping symbols, such as brackets and the top or bottom of a fraction bar), innermost first.
Evaluate exponents and roots.
Multiply and divide, moving from left to right.
Add and subtract, moving from left to right.

Multiplication and division share a level, so neither comes first: $48 \div 6 \times 2 = 8 \times 2 = 16$ , not $48 \div 12$ . Addition and subtraction work the same way.

\begin{aligned} 18 - 2(4 + 1)^2 \div 5 &= 18 - 2(5)^2 \div 5 \\ &= 18 - 2(25) \div 5 \\ &= 18 - 50 \div 5 \\ &= 18 - 10 \\ &= 8 \end{aligned}

An exponent applies only to the number directly beside it, so the sign matters. $-3^2$ means the opposite of $3^2$ , which is $-9$ , while $(-3)^2 = (-3)(-3) = 9$ .

The absolute value bars act as grouping symbols: $12 - \lvert 5 - 9 \rvert = 12 - \lvert -4 \rvert = 12 - 4 = 8$ .
