Answer key — Negative Numbers & Integers
- B — 3. Adding a larger positive number moves you up: −5 + 8 = 3.
- A — −7. Subtracting moves you further negative: −3 − 4 = −7.
- A — −18. A negative times a positive is negative: −6 × 3 = −18.
- B — 3. A negative divided by a negative is positive: −12 ÷ −4 = 3.
- B — 8. Subtracting a negative is the same as adding: 5 + 3 = 8.
- A — −13. Adding two negatives: −8 + (−5) = −13.
- A — −4. A negative divided by a positive is negative: −20 ÷ 5 = −4.
- B — 24. A negative times a negative is positive: −4 × −6 = 24.
- A — −3. 7 − 10 = −3.
- B — 6. −9 + 15 = 6.
