    Study Notes

    Operations on Integers

    • Operations include addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of signed integers.
    • Target skills: perform operations on integers, apply rules in word problems, define prime, composite, factors, and multiples, list prime factors, and find GCF and LCM.

    Rules on Signed Numbers: Addition

    • Same Sign:
      • Add the absolute values, keep the sign (e.g., 8 + 14 = 22; -5 + -5 = -10).
    • Unlike Sign:
      • Subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger, keep the sign of the larger number (e.g., 54 + -12 = 42; -40 + 5 = -35).

    Rules on Signed Numbers: Subtraction

    • To subtract, change the sign of the subtrahend and follow addition rules (e.g., 56 - 23 becomes 56 + -23).

    Rules on Signed Numbers: Multiplication

    • Same Sign: Product is positive (e.g., -5 * -5 = 25).
    • Unlike Sign: Product is negative (e.g., 8 * -3 = -24).

    Rules on Signed Numbers: Division

    • Similar to multiplication, the signs determine the result:
      • Same Sign: Result is positive (e.g., -12 ÷ -12 = 1).
      • Unlike Sign: Result is negative (e.g., 81 ÷ -3 = -27).

    Prime and Composite Numbers

    • Prime Numbers:
      • Natural numbers with exactly two positive factors: 1 and itself (e.g., 2, 3, 5).
    • Composite Numbers:
      • Natural numbers greater than 1 with more than two factors (e.g., 35, factors are 1, 5, 7, 35).
    • Note: 1 is neither prime nor composite, while 2 is the smallest prime number.

    Prime Factorization

    • The unique representation of a number as a product of prime numbers.
    • All integers greater than 1 can be expressed as products of prime factors (Theorem).
    • To find it:
      • Divide by the smallest prime (2), then subsequently by larger primes (3, 5, etc.) until reaching 1.

    Recall Points for Operations

    • For addition and subtraction, apply the rules depending on the signs. For multiplication and division, ensure to account for the signs properly to determine the result.
