Key Concepts

Integer Addition

Integer addition involves combining whole numbers that can be positive or negative. When adding integers, especially negatives, you sum their absolute values and assign the common sign to the result.

Adding Negative Numbers

When two negative numbers are added together, their absolute values are added, and the result is given a negative sign. This reflects the cumulative effect of moving further left on the number line.
