Integers
part 1
definition
An integer is a whole number (not a
fraction) that can be positive, negative, or
zero.
integers cannot have decimal places.
Integer can be visualized on a number
line:
What is a number line?
• A line with arrows on both ends that show
the integers with slash marks
• Arrows show the line goes to infinity in
both directions ( + and -)
• Uses a negative sign (-) with negative
numbers but no positive sign (+) with
positive numbers
• Zero is the origin and is neither negative
nor positive
The position of integer in
number line
State the relation between
two integers
Can be stated for every p,q integer apply:
 if p lies to the right of q so p>q
 If p lies to the left of q so p<q
