PROBLEM OPENER
Mrs. Reyes bought fruits that cost P 700.00 from a
wholesaler and sold them in her fruits stand. On
Monday, her sales are P800.00 and on Tuesday,
P500.00. But on Wednesday, she loses P400.00
because some of the fruits are already rotten.
Considering the sales of fruits for the three days,
did Mrs. Reyes gain or lose profit?
RULES IN ADDING INTEGERS
1. 5 + 8 = 13
4. (-63) + 49 = -14
12⁰ - 8⁰ = N
minuend subtrahend
When subtracting integers, change the
subtraction sign to addition sign. Simply change
the sign of the subtrahend and proceed to
addition of integers.
12⁰ - 8⁰ = N
12⁰ + (-8⁰) = 4⁰
Examples:
1. 5 – 3 = 5 + (-3) = 2
3. 2- (-7) = 2 + 7 = 9
3) (-9) – 13 = -22
4) 93 – 101 = -8
How do we subtract
integers?
ACTIVITY 3
Subtract the integers.
6) 28 – (-13) =
1) (-762) – 345 =
7) (-6) – (-8) =
2) (-4,209) – (-3,985) =
8) (-42) – 37 =
3) 512 – (-793) =
9) 54 – (-16) =
4) 0 – (-291) =
10) 58 – (-23) – 67 =
5) (-11,359) – 10,938 =
