Introduction to Adding Integers

Integers include positive numbers, negative numbers, and zero. When we add integers, we need to understand how positive and negative values interact on the number line.

Adding integers is like combining movements on a number line. Positive numbers move right, and negative numbers move left.

In this lesson, you'll learn the rules for adding integers with the same sign and different signs, and how to use number lines to visualize these operations.
