Working with integers
* Subtracting an integer is the same as adding its opposite, and adding a number is the same as subtracting its opposite. *If an even number of negative integers are multiplied or divided, the product is positive. If an odd number of negative integers are multiplied or divided, the product is negative. *To add two integers with the same sign, add their absolute values and give the sum of the sign that both numbers have * To add two integers with opposite signs, subtract the smaller absolute value from the greater absolute value and give the difference the sign of the number with the greater absolute value.
Converting mixed numbers to fractions
*Multiply denominator of the fraction by absolute value of the integer. *Add the numerator to that product. *Write the result of the denominator of the fraction **Put a negative sign before the fraction if the mixed number is negative
Converting fractions to mixed numbers
*Write the highest integral number of times the denominator fits completely into the numerator. *Write what remains as the numerator of a fraction beside the integer. *The denominator of the fraction will be the denominator of the fraction you are converting.
