We can represent integers using red and We can represent integers using red and yellow counters.yellow counters.

Red tiles will represent negative integers, Red tiles will represent negative integers, and yellow tiles will represent positive and yellow tiles will represent positive integers.integers.

Negative integer Positive integer


The diagrams below show 2 ways to The diagrams below show 2 ways to represent -3.represent -3.

Represent -3 in 2 more ways.Represent -3 in 2 more ways.

-3 -3


You may represent -3 by using 3 red tiles You may represent -3 by using 3 red tiles and any number of groups of +1 and -1 tilesand any number of groups of +1 and -1 tiles


Tell which integer each group of tiles represents.Tell which integer each group of tiles represents.

-2 +1

-2 + -3 = ?-2 + -3 = ?

ANSWER

+ = -5

-2 + -3 = -2 + -3 = --55

ADDING INTEGERSADDING INTEGERS -6 + +2 = ?

ANSWER

--6 + 6 + ++2 = 2 = --44

--3 + 3 + ++4 = 4 = ++11

SUBTRACTING INTEGERSSUBTRACTING INTEGERS

We often think of subtraction as a “take away” We often think of subtraction as a “take away” operation.operation.

Which diagram could be used to computeWhich diagram could be used to compute

++3 - 3 - ++5 = ?5 = ?

+3 +3


We can’t take away 5

yellow tiles from this

diagram. There is not

enough tiles to take

away!!

This diagram also represents

+3, and we can take away +5.

• When we take 5 yellow tiles

away, we have 2 red tiles left.


Use your red and yellow tiles to model each Use your red and yellow tiles to model each subtraction problem.subtraction problem.

--2 - 2 - --4 = ?4 = ?

ANSWER


This representation

of -2 doesn’t have

enough tiles to

take away -4.

Now if you add 2 more reds

tiles and 2 more yellow tiles

(adding zero) you would

have a total of 4 red tiles and

the tiles still represent -2.

Now you can take away 4 red

tiles.

-2 - -4 = +2

2 yellow tiles are left, so the

answer is…

++3 - 3 - --5 = ?5 = ?ANSWER


• Add enough red and yellow pairs so you can take away 5 red tiles.

• Take away 5 red tiles, you have 8 yellow tiles left.

+3 - -5 = +8


Work this problem.Work this problem.

--3 - 3 - ++2 = ?2 = ?ANSWER


•Add two pairs of red and yellow tiles so you can take away 2 yellow tiles.

• Take away 2 yellow tiles, you have 5 red tiles left.

-3 - +2 = -5


A fact family gives 4 true equations using A fact family gives 4 true equations using the same 3 numbers.the same 3 numbers.

For example: For example:

7 + 8 = 157 + 8 = 158 + 7 = 158 + 7 = 1515 – 7 = 815 – 7 = 815 – 8 = 715 – 8 = 7

All of these statements are true.


We can also use fact family with integers.We can also use fact family with integers.

INTEGERS AND INTEGERS AND MULTIPLICATIONMULTIPLICATION

MULTIPLICATIONMULTIPLICATION

Red and yellow tiles can be used to model Red and yellow tiles can be used to model multiplication. multiplication.

Remember that multiplication can be described Remember that multiplication can be described as repeated addition.as repeated addition.

So 2 x 3 = ?So 2 x 3 = ?

2 groups of 3 tiles = 6 tiles


2 x 2 x --3 means 2 groups of 3 means 2 groups of --33

2 x x --33 = -6


Since 2 x 3 = 6 and 3 x 2 = 6, does it make Since 2 x 3 = 6 and 3 x 2 = 6, does it make sense that sense that --3 x 2 = 3 x 2 = --6 ?6 ?

--3 x 2 = 3 x 2 = --6 is true. 6 is true. ++2 x 2 x --3 = 3 = --6 and 6 and --3 x 3 x ++2 = 2 = --6 belong to a fact 6 belong to a fact family:family:

++2 x 2 x --3 = 3 = --66--3 x 3 x ++2 = 2 = --66--6 6 ÷ ÷ ++2 = 2 = --33--6 6 ÷÷ -3 = +2


Use your tiles to model each multiplication Use your tiles to model each multiplication problem.problem.++2 x 2 x ++4 = ?4 = ?

ANSWER2 groups of +4

++2 x 2 x ++4 = 4 = ++88


++3 x 3 x --3 = ?3 = ?

ANSWER

3 groups of -3

++3 x 3 x --3 = 3 = --99

MULTIPLICATIONMULTIPLICATION--2 x 2 x ++4 = ?4 = ?

ANSWER4 groups of -2

--2 x 2 x ++4 = 4 = --88

Use the fact family forUse the fact family for--2 x 2 x ++4 = ? 4 = ? We can’t show We can’t show --2 groups of 2 groups of ++44++4 x 4 x --2 = ?2 = ? we can show 4 groups of we can show 4 groups of --22


++1, 1, --1 are opposites1 are opposites

the products are the products are oppositeopposite

Since Since ++2 and 2 and --2 are opposites of each other,2 are opposites of each other,

++2 x 2 x --3 and 3 and --2 x 2 x --3 have opposite products.3 have opposite products.

++1 x 1 x ++3 = 3 = ++33--1 x 1 x ++3 = 3 = --33


To model To model --2 x 2 x --3 use 2 groups of the 3 use 2 groups of the opposite of opposite of --33

--2 x 2 x --3 = 3 = ++66


Use tiles to illustrate Use tiles to illustrate --3 x 3 x --4 =?4 =?

ANSWER

3 groups of +4 (the opposite of -4)

--3 x 3 x --4 = 4 = ++1212
