Study Notes
Integers
Definition
- An integer is a whole number, either positive, negative, or zero, without a fractional part.
- Examples: ..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ...
Properties
- Closure: The sum, difference, product, and quotient (except division by zero) of two integers is always an integer.
- Commutative Property: The order of integers in an operation does not change the result.
- Associative Property: The order in which integers are grouped in an operation does not change the result.
- Distributive Property: The multiplication of an integer over the sum of two integers is equal to the sum of their individual products.
Operations
- Addition: The sum of two integers is always an integer.
- Subtraction: The difference of two integers is always an integer.
- Multiplication: The product of two integers is always an integer.
- Division: The quotient of two integers is not always an integer, but it can be expressed as an integer or a decimal.
Types of Integers
- Even Integers: divisible by 2, e.g., ..., -4, -2, 0, 2, 4, ...
- Odd Integers: not divisible by 2, e.g., ..., -3, -1, 1, 3, 5, ...
- Prime Integers: only divisible by 1 and themselves, e.g., 2, 3, 5, 7, ...
