-- Ignore the signs for a moment. -- Find the difference of the two integers. -- Give it the sign of whichever integer is the bigger number.
For each pair of such integers, find the difference between the absolute values of the two integers and allocate the sign of the bigger number to it.

To add two integers with unlike signs: -- Find the difference between their sizes, ignoring their signs. -- Give the difference the sign of the integer with the larger size.
To find the distance between two integers using the difference, you simply subtract the smaller integer from the larger integer. The result will be the distance between the two integers on the number line. For example, if you have integers 7 and 3, you would subtract 3 from 7 to get a distance of 4. This method works because the difference between two integers gives you the number of units separating them on the number line.
-- write the difference between the integers without regard to their signs -- give the difference the same sign as the larger of the two integers
-- Ignore the signs for a moment. -- Find the difference of the two integers. -- Give it the sign of whichever integer is the bigger number.
11,8
The difference (greater minus lesser) is the distance between them.
The product of the two integers is -80.
For each pair of such integers, find the difference between the absolute values of the two integers and allocate the sign of the bigger number to it.

1. Take the absolute values of those two integers.2. Find the difference.3. Determine which integer is the largest. If that integer is positive, then the answer is positive. If that integer is negative, then the answer is negative.
