The set of integers is closed under addition so that if x and y are integers, then x + y is an integer.Addition of integers is commutative, that is x + y = y + x
Addition of integers is associative, that is (x + y) + z = x + (y + z) and so, without ambiguity, either can be written as x + y + z.
The same three rules apply to addition of rational numbers.
You need the rules of multiplication as well as of addition. But multiplication of integers can be viewed as repeated addition. Thus, if p/q and r/s are two rational numbers then their sum is(p*s + q*r)/(q*s)
Adding Integers To add integers, one must consider the following two rules to be a successful. If you want to think of it on the number line you start from 0 and when you add a positive number you...
Any integer can be divided by any non-zero integer, and the result is a rational 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.
Adding IntegersTo add integers, one must consider the following two rules to be a successful.If you want to think of it on the number line you start from 0 and when you add a positive number you go that much to the right, and when you add a negative number you go that much to the left. When adding two positive integers, just add like normal. When adding one positive integer, and one negative integer, it is like subtracting a positive number from a positive number. When adding two negative integers, it is like subtracting a positive number from a negative number.

The rules are the same.
Any integer can be divided by any non-zero integer, and the result is a rational 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 subtrct integers ,rewrite as adding opposites and use the rules for addtion of integers..
The answer also has the same sign.
ADDING: same sign, add and keep that sign. opposite sides, subtract their absolute values and use the sign of the number with the larger absolute value SUBRTRACTING: change the sign of the subtrahend (2nd number) then ADD using rules above.
Adding integers, if they have the same sign, add their absolute values and keep the same sign. Subtracting, change the sign of the 2nd number and the add using rules of addition. Multiplying and dividing, Divide the absolute values, if the signs are the same the answer is positive, if the signs are different the answer is negative.
