Multiplying Integers and Sign Rules

  • Multiplication is repeated addition: a × b means adding a to itself b times.
  • Same signs give a positive product. Different signs give a negative product.
Positive times positive
\[a \times b = ab\]
Negative times positive
\[(-a) \times b = -(ab)\]
Negative times negative
\[(-a) \times (-b) = ab\]
Product with zero
\[a \times 0 = 0\]

Common mistake: Thinking a negative times a negative is negative. Two negative signs always give a positive product.

Properties of Multiplication

  • Order and grouping do not change the product, so multiply in any convenient order.
  • Split a large number into tens and ones, multiply each part, then add.
Commutative property
\[a \times b = b \times a\]
Associative property
\[(a \times b) \times c = a \times (b \times c)\]
Distributive property
\[a \times (b + c) = a \times b + a \times c\]
Multiplicative identity
\[a \times 1 = a\]

Common mistake: Using the distributive property but multiplying only one part, such as writing a × (b + c) = a × b + c.

Division as Inverse of Multiplication

  • Division is equal sharing or grouping. It undoes multiplication.
  • If a ÷ b = q, then q × b = a. The answer q is called the quotient.
Link to multiplication
\[a \div b = q \iff q \times b = a\]
Same signs
\[(-a) \div (-b) = a \div b\]
Different signs
\[(-a) \div b = a \div (-b) = -(a \div b)\]

Common mistake: Mixing up the dividend and the divisor. In a ÷ b, a is shared into b equal parts, not b into a parts.

Properties of Division

  • Dividing any integer by 1 gives the same integer. Dividing a non-zero number by itself gives 1.
  • Division is not commutative, and division by zero is not defined.
Dividing by one
\[a \div 1 = a\]
Dividing a number by itself
\[a \div a = 1,\ a \neq 0\]
Zero divided by a number
\[0 \div a = 0,\ a \neq 0\]
Order matters
\[a \div b \neq b \div a \text{ in general}\]

Common mistake: Writing a ÷ 0 = 0 or a ÷ 0 = a. Division by zero has no answer; it is undefined.
