By how much does 2 exceed −3?

(a) −1
(b) 1
(c) −5
(d) 5

Answer 3:

(d) 5

(a) 5
(b) −5
(c) 7
(d) −7

Answer 4:

(a)  5
Let the number to be subtracted be x.
To find the number, we have:
−1 − x = −6
x = −1 + 6 = 5

Mark (✓) against the correct answer
How much less than −2 is −6?

(a) 4
(b) −4
(c) 8
(d) −8

Answer 5:

(c) 4 
 We can see that
(−2) − (−6) = (−2) + 6 = 4

Hence, −6 is four (4) less than −2.

Question 6:

Mark (✓) against the correct answer
On subtracting 4 from −4, we get

(a) 8
(b) −8
(c) 0
(d) none of these

Answer 6:

By how much does −3 exceed −5?

(a) −2
(b) 2
(c) 8
(d) −8

Answer 7:

(b) 2
Required number = (−3) − (−5) = 5 − 3 = 2

Question 8:

Mark (✓) against the correct answer
What must be subtracted from −3 to get −9?

(a) −6
(b) 12
(c) 6
(d) −12

Answer 8:

(c) 6
(−3) − x = −9
∴ x = (−3) + 9 = 6
Hence, 6 must be subtracted from −3 to get −9.

Question 12:

Mark (✓) against the correct answer
0 ÷ (−5) = ?

(a) −5
(b) 0
(c) not defined

Answer 12:

(b) 0
Dividing zero by any integer gives zero as the result.

Question 13:

Mark (✓) against the correct answer
(−8) ÷ 0 = ?

(a) −8
(b) 0
(c) not defined

Answer 13:

(c) not defined

Dividing any integer by zero is not defined.

Question 14:

Mark (✓) against the correct answer
Which of the following is a true statement?

(a) −11 > −8
(b) −11 < −8
(c) −11 and −8 cannot be compared

Answer 14:

(b) −11 < −8

Negative integers decrease with increasing magnitudes.

Question 15:

Mark (✓) against the correct answer
The sum of two integers is 6. If one of them is −3, then the other is

(a) −9
(b) 9
(c) 3
(d) −3

Answer 15:

(b) 9

Let the other integer be a. Then, we have:
−3 + a = 6
∴ a = 6 − (−3) = 9

Question 16:

Mark (✓) against the correct answer
The sum of two integers is −4. If one of them is 6, then the other is

(a) −10
(b) 10
(c) 2
(d) −2

Answer 16:

(a) −10
Let the other integer be a. Then, we have:
6 + a = −4
∴ a = −4 − 6 = −10

Hence, the other integer is −10.

Question 17:

Mark (✓) against the correct answer
The sum of two integers is 14. If one of them is −8, then the other is

(a) 22
(b) −22
(c) 6
(d) −6

Answer 17:

(a) 22
Let the other integer be a. Then, we have:
−8 + a = 14
a = 14 + 8 = 22

Hence, the other integer is 22.

Question 18:

Mark (✓) against the correct answer
The additive inverse of −6 is
(a) 16
(b) -16
(c) 6
(d) 5

Answer 18:

(c) 6

The additive inverse of any integer a is −a.
Thus, the additive inverse of −6 is 6.

(−15) × 8 + (−15) × 2 = ?

(a) 150
(b) −150
(c)  90
(d)  −90

Answer 19:

(b) −150
We have (−15) × 8 + (−15) × 2

(a) 24
(b) −24
(c) 120
(d) −120

Answer 20:

(b) −24
We have (−12) × 6 − (−12) × 4
= (−12) × (6 − 4)       [Associative property]

(a) 34
(b) −34
(c) 152
(d) −152

Answer 23:

(c) 152
