I. Addition

1. Positive + Positive = Positive ( +3 PLUS +3 = +6)

2. Negative + Negative = Negative (-3 PLUS -3 = -6)

3. Positive + Negative OR Negative + Positive

Subtract the numbers then copy the sign of the number with greater value.

(+5 PLUS -3 = +2)

(-5 PLUS +3 = -2)

II. Subtraction

Change the sign of the subtrahend then the follow the rules of addition above.

Examples:

+5 MINUS -3 = +5 +3 = +8

+5 MINUS +3 = +5 -3 = +2

III. Multiplication

1. Positive x Positive = Positive (+3 times +5= +15)

2. Negative x Negative = Positive (-3 times -5 = +15)

3. Positive x Negative = Negative (+3 times -5 = -15)

4. Negative x Positive = Negative (-3 times +5 = -15)

IV. Division

Same rules as in multiplication

Note:

Like signs when multiplied or divided together = Positive

Unlike signs when multiplied or divided together = Negative

How are the mnemonic devices LA US and LP UN used in operating signed numbers?

These mnemonic devices were developed by SHERWIN E. BALBUENA, mathematics teacher of Cabitan NHS, Mandaon, Masbate, Philippines", to teach his students with disabilities the rules in operating signed numbers. LA US means "Like signs Add, Unlike signs Subtract". This device lets the student remember the rule in adding signed numbers. LP UN means "Like signs Positive, Unlike signs Negative". This device lets the student recall the rules in finding the product and quotient of two signed numbers.

What are the different rules in governing operations of real numbers?

The set of real numbers is closed under addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division (except that you cannot divide by zero). By closed, this means that if the two numbers in the operation are both real numbers, the result of the operation will always be a real number. Dividing by zero is undefined (for all practical purposes)
