Mark (✓) against the correct answer
By how much does 2 exceed −3?
(a) −1
(b) 1
(c) −5
(d) 5
(d) 5
We can see that
−3 + 5 = 2
Hence, 2 exceeds −3 by 5.

What must be subtracted from −1 to get −6?
(a) 5
(b) −5
(c) 7
(d) −7
(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
(c) 4
We can see that
(−2) − (−6) = (−2) + 6 = 4
Hence, −6 is four (4) less than −2.
Mark (✓) against the correct answer
On subtracting 4 from −4, we get
(a) 8
(b) −8
(c) 0
(d) none of these
(b) −8
Subtracting 4 from −4, we get:
(−4) − 4 = −8

By how much does −3 exceed −5?
(a) −2
(b) 2
(c) 8
(d) −8
(b) 2
Required number = (−3) − (−5) = 5 − 3 = 2
Mark (✓) against the correct answer
What must be subtracted from −3 to get −9?
(a) −6
(b) 12
(c) 6
(d) −12
(c) 6
(−3) − x = −9
∴ x = (−3) + 9 = 6
Hence, 6 must be subtracted from −3 to get −9.
Mark (✓) against the correct answer
On subtracting 6 from −5, we get
(a) 1
(b) 11
(c) −11
(d) none of these
(c) −11
Subtracting 6 from −5, we get:
(−5) − 6 = −11

On subtracting −13 from −8, we get
(a) −21
(b) 21
(c) 5
(d) −5
(c) 5
Subtracting −13 from −8, we get:
(−8) − (−13)
= −8 + 13
= 5

(−36) ÷ (−9) = ?
(a) 4
(b) −4
(c) none of these
(a) 4
(−36) ÷ (−9) = 4
Here, the negative signs in both the numerator and denominator got cancelled with each other.

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
(b) 9
Let the other integer be a. Then, we have:
−3 + a = 6
∴ a = 6 − (−3) = 9
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
(a) −10
Let the other integer be a. Then, we have:
6 + a = −4
∴ a = −4 − 6 = −10
Hence, the other integer is −10.

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

(b)
(c) 6
(d) 5
(c) 6
The additive inverse of any integer a is −a.
Thus, the additive inverse of −6 is 6.
