The absolute value of an integer is the value of the integer without regard to its sign. The absolute value need not be an integer.
If the absolute value of the positive integer is greater than the absolute value of the negative integer, then the sum of the two will be positive.If the absolute value of the positive integer is less than the absolute value of the negative integer, then the sum will be negative.If the absolute values of the two integers are the same then the sum will be zero, which has neither a negative nor a positive sign.
Rule: The sum of two negative integers is a negative integer.Rule: The sum of two positive integers is a positive integer.Procedure: To add a positive and a negative integer (or a negative and a positive integer), follow these steps:1. Find the absolute value of each integer.2. Subtract the smaller number from the larger number you get in Step 1.3. The result from Step 2 takes the sign of the integer with the greater absolute value.
When adding two integers, the answer will be positive if both integers are positive, or if one is negative but its absolute value is smaller than the absolute value of the positive integer.
Yes, a positive integer and its negative have the same absolute value. For example, +5 and -5 have the same absolute value.
No.A positive integer is always larger than a negative integer. In the case of two negative integers, the integer with the larger absolute value is actually smaller.
The absolute value of an integer is the value of the integer without regard to its sign. The absolute value need not be an integer.
Negative numbers are integers as well. The absolute value of any negative integer will be positive and therefore larger than itself.
When the positive integer is greater than the negative integer.
If the absolute value of the positive integer is greater than the absolute value of the negative integer, then the sum of the two will be positive.If the absolute value of the positive integer is less than the absolute value of the negative integer, then the sum will be negative.If the absolute values of the two integers are the same then the sum will be zero, which has neither a negative nor a positive sign.

Positive integers are greater than zero. Negative integers are less than zero.
The sum of two positive integers is positive. The sum of two negative integers is negative. The sum of one positive integer and one negative integer has the same sign as the addend with the greater absolute value. If the absolute values of the two addends are equal, the sum is zero.
When adding two integers, the answer will be positive if both integers are positive, or if one is negative but its absolute value is smaller than the absolute value of the positive integer.
As 6 is a positive integer, no negative integer is greater than it.
The distance from 0 of an integer is called its absolute value, or magnitude.
Look at the places that integers have on the number line. The integer that is on the right is greater that the integer is on the left.
