Learning Target: Know the concept of integers.
References Titles: New Syllabus Primary Mathematics
Author: Teh Pick Ching and Xander Yuan Page No.: 138-143
Concepts:
An integer (pronounced IN-tuh-jer) is a whole number (not a fractional number) that can be positive, negative, or zero.
• The number line goes on forever in both directions. This is indicated by the arrows.
• Whole numbers greater than zero are called positive integers. These numbers are to the right of zero on the
number line.
• Whole numbers less than zero are called negative integers. These numbers are to the left of zero on the
number line.
• The integer zero is neutral. It is neither positive nor negative.
• The sign of an integer is either positive (+) or negative (-), except zero, which has no sign.
• Two integers are opposites if they are each the same distance away from zero, but on opposite sides of the
number line. One will have a positive sign, the other have a negative sign. In the number line above, +3 and
-3 are labeled as opposites.
Examples:
A list of negative behavioral words changed to positive ones

Points to Remember
Opposite integers are the pairs of integers that have the same absolute value or have the same distance away
from zero.
Ex. /-3 /and /+3/ = +3 and +3
Positive integers can be written with or without a positive sign (+) but always put the negative (-) with negative
numbers.
The sign of a number indicates a positive or a negative situation.

Examples:
Loss PhP 10.00 = -10
Earned PhP 1000.00 = +1000
