Adding+Integers

**Adding Integers** **2 Steps to adding integers** ** 1. If the signs are the same, add the numbers and keep the sign ** ** Ex. 2 + 6 = 8 ** ** -3 + (-10) = -13 **

** 2. If the signs are different, subtract the absolute values of the numbers and use the sign of the number with the larger absolute value. ** ** Ex. (-8) + 3 = ** ** Subtract their absolute values: 8 - 3 = 5 ** ** Use the sign of the number with the larger absolute value: 8 is larger and it's negative so my answer is negative ** ** (-8) + 3 = 5 **
