Acknowledgement
Above all, Ato Zelalem Mulatu, AAEB Head, should receive the most
acknowledgements for his outstanding leadership from the outset to the end of the
Textbook and Teacher’s guide preparation. Just to mention his chief roles but a
few: he generated valuable ideas, shared his vast experience during most panels,
initiated and convinced his conviction to all stakeholders that the Addis Ababa
City Government School teachers have to take the lion’s share in the Textbook
and Teacher Guide development. His unabated inspiration and urge to the team
for diligence, deep sense of patriotism, synergy and true professional ethics has
been energy to all actors partaking in the task.
The next bottom-heart gratitude has to be extended to the following management
members of the bureau: Ato Admasu Dechasa, Deputy Head of the Curriculum
Division, Ato Dagnew Gebru, Deputy Head of the Education Technology, Ato
Samson Melese, deputy Head of Teacher Development Division, W/ro Abebech
Negash, Bureau Head Advisor, Ato Desta Mersha, Bureau Technical Advisor and
Ato Sisay Endale, Head of Education Bureau Office. Members of the AAEB
management, have to be commended for their painstaking efforts in addressing
instantly each issue of challenge, reviewing all drafts and providing immediate
feedbacks. Without their unreserved devotion, the timely and successful
realization of this huge work would not have been possible.
The Last deepest acknowledgement needs to go to the school principals for
allowing the textbook writers to be free of their regular job of teaching and to
focus on the material preparation. Moreover, their earnest and consistent moral
support deserves special words of praise.

Mathematics: Grade 7 ( Chapter 2 )
Subtracting an integer b from a is the same as adding opposite of b to a

i.e. for any integers a and b , a — b = a + (— b )
Example 1: Find the difference of the following integer by expressing in the form
of sum.
a. 5 - 2 b. 4 - 7 c. 2 - 6
Solution:
a. 5 — 2, subtracting 2 means adding the opposite of 2
5-2 = 5 + (-2)
=3
b. 4 — 7 subtracting
,
= +(
4-7 4
7 means adding the opposite of 7
- 7)
= -( 7 - 4)
= -3
c. 2 — 6, subtracting 6 means adding the opposite of 6
2 - 6 = 2 + (- 6)
= -(6 - 2 )
= -4
Example 2: Find the difference of the following integer by expressing in the form
of sum.
a. 25 - (-30) b. -12 - (-18) c. -55 - (-20) d. 8 - (-9)
Solution:
a . 25 — ( — 30), subtracting -30 means adding the Note: For any two-
integer a and b
opposite of -30
25 - (-30) = 25 + 30
= 55
a — (— b) =a+b
b. —opposite
12 — ( —18) subtracting -18 means adding the
-
of 18
,
-12 - (-18) = -12 + 18

= + (18 - 12)
=6
c. — 55 — ( — 20), subtracting -20 means adding the opposite of -20
-55 - (-20) = -55 + 20
( Chapter 2 ) Mathematics: Grade 7
= -(55 - 20)
= -35
d. 8 — ( — 9), subtracting -9 means adding the opposite of -9
8 - (-9) =8+9 = 17
Example 3:
Find the difference of the following integer by expressing in the form of sum.
a. -21 - 12 b. -248 -125
Solution: Note: For any two-

integer a and b
a. —opposite
21 — 12 subtracting 12 means adding the
,
of 12
- a - b = - (a + b )
-2 1 - 12 = - 2 1 + (- 1 2)
= - ( 21 + 12)
= -33
b. — 248 — 125, subtracting 125 means adding the opposite of 125
-248 - 125 = -248 + (-125)
= -( 248 + 125)
= -373
Exercise 2.4.2
1. express the following differences in the form of sum

a. 3 - (-10) c. 9 - 12 e. -178 - 57
b. -5 - (-6) d. 25 - 17 f. -365 - 1000
2. Find the following differences.
a. 0 - 3 c. -75 - 15 e. 465 - (-778)
b. 7 - (-8) d. -1789 - (-1000) f. 25 - 75
3. The melting point of dry ice is -109° F .The boiling point of dry ice is 109° F
then, how many degrees is the boiling point above the melting point?
Mathematics: Grade 7 ( Chapter 7 )
4. The mean of three numbers is 18 and the mean of five other numbers is 24, then
find the mean of all 8 numbers.
5. Find the value of x, so that the mean of the given data 16, 2x, 6, 10 and 4 is 8.
B. Mode
Activity 7.3.2
1. Which number occurs most frequently?
a. 6 12 10 6 23 12 6 25
b. 23 22 21 24 23 0 23 24 25 24
c. 100 500 600 700 800 900
2 . Define Mode of data by your own words.
Definition 7.5: The mode of list of data is the value which occurs most
frequently.
Example 4: find the mode of given data below
a. 20 30 40 20 20 30 50
b. 12 14 12 14 13 14 12
c. 25 28 50 60 70 50 60 70 90
d. 21 78 90 40 20 10 15 25 35
Solution:
a. 20 occurs more frequently than any other values of data, then mode is 20.
b. 12 and 14 occurs three times, hence three are two modes 12 andl 4.
c. 50, 60 and 70 occurs two times equally, then there are three modes 50, 60
and 70.
d. Each value occurs only once, so there is no mode for the given data.
