Questions and Answers
Q 1 - Add the following integers:

22 + (−19)

Answer : C

Explanation

Step 1:

Rule: If the numbers are of opposite signs, find their difference and put the sign of the greater number.

Step 2:

Difference of [22, 19] =22 – 19 = 3; Sign of greater number is +.

So, 22 + (−19) = +3

Q 2 - Add the following integers:

39 + (−25)

Answer : D

Explanation

Step 1:

Rule: If the numbers are of opposite signs, find their difference and put the sign of the greater number.

Step 2:

Difference of [39, 25] = 39 – 25 = 14; Sign of greater number is +.

So, 39 + (−25) = +14

Q 3 - Add the following integers:

−43 + (−24)

Answer : A

Explanation

Step 1:

Rule: If the numbers are of same sign, we add them and put their sign on the sum.

Step 2:

Sum of [43, 24] = 43 + 24 = 67; Sign of numbers is (−).

So, −43 + (−24) = −67

Q 4 - Add the following integers:

56 + (−30)

Answer : B

Explanation

Step 1:

Rule: If the numbers are of opposite signs, find their difference and put the sign of the greater number.

Step 2:

Difference of [56, 30] = 56 – 30 = 26; Sign of greater number is +.

So, 56 + (−30) = +26

Q 5 - Add the following integers:

−29 + (−11)

Answer : B

Explanation

Step 1:

Rule: If the numbers are of same sign, we add them and put their sign on the sum.

Step 2:

Sum of [29, 11] = 29 + 11 = 40; Sign of numbers is (−).

So, −29 + (−11) = −40

Q 6 - Add the following integers:

−63 + (−27)

Answer : A

Explanation

Step 1:

Rule: If the numbers are of same sign, we add them and put their sign on the sum.

Step 2:

Sum of [63, 27] = 63 + 27 = 90; Sign of numbers is (−).

So, −63 + (−27) = −90

Q 7 - Add the following integers:

59 + (−85)

Answer : D

Explanation

Step 1:

Rule: If the numbers are of opposite signs, find their difference and put the sign of the greater number.

Step 2:

Difference of [85, 59] = 85 – 59 = 26;

Sign of greater number is (−). So, 59 + (−85) = −26

Q 8 - Add the following integers:

−40 + (−76)

Answer : C

Explanation

Step 1:

Rule: If the numbers are of same sign, we add them and put their sign on the sum.

Step 2:

Sum of [40, 76] = 40 + 76 = 116; Sign of numbers is (−).

So, −40 + (−76) = −116

Q 9 - Add the following integers:

45 + (−96)

Answer : A

Explanation

Step 1:

Rule: If the numbers are of opposite signs, find their difference and put the sign of the greater number.

Step 2:

Difference of [96, 45] = 96 – 45 = 51;

Sign of greater number is (−). So, 45 + (−96) = −51

Q 10 - Add the following integers:

−16 + (−13)

Answer : C

Explanation

Step 1:

Rule: If the numbers are of same sign, we add them and put their sign on the sum.

Step 2:

Sum of [13, 16] = 13 + 16 = 29;

Sign of numbers is (−)

So, −16 + (−13) = −29
