This document discusses directed numbers including integers, fractions, and decimals. It covers topics like multiplication and division of integers, following order of operations, comparing and ordering fractions and decimals, and performing computations with directed numbers. Key points include: integers can be positive or negative; like signs in integer multiplication/division yield positive results while unlike signs yield negative results; fractions and decimals can be positive or negative depending on their value; and computations with directed numbers must follow standard order of operations.

2. CHAPTER 1
DIRECTED NUMBERS
Subtopics in this chapter:
1.1 Multiplication and division of integers
1.2 Combined operations
(Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication and
Division)
1.3 Positive and Negative Fractions
1.4 Positive and Negative Decimals
1.5 Computations involving Directed Numbers

3. KEYWORDS
 POSITIVE SIGN (+)
 NEGATIVE SIGN (-)
 ADDITION (+)
 SUBTRACTION (-)
 GREATER THAN (>)
 LESS THAN (<)

4. 1.1 MULTIPLICATION AND DIVISION OF INTEGERS
Learning Outcome :
a) Multiply integers and solve problems involving of
multiplication of integers.
b) Divide integers and solve problems involving
division of integers.

5. • The positive numbers such as 1, 2, 3, 4, …. are
positive integers.
• The negative numbers such as -1, -2, -3, -4, …. are
negative integers.
MULTIPLICATION DIVISION
(+ ) × (+) = (+) (+ ) ÷ (+) = (+)
(- ) × (-) = (+) (- ) ÷ (-) = (+)
(+ ) × (-) = (-) (+ ) ÷ (-) = (-)
(- ) × (+) = (-) (- ) ÷ (+) = (-)
LIKE SIGNS ARE +VE INTEGERS
UNLIKE SIGNS ARE –VE INTEGERS

6. EXAMPLES
1) 6×(-7) × (-2) TIPS !!!
Solution: the +ve sign is usually
=6×(14) omitted
=84 +30 is written as 30
2)-27 ÷ 9 ÷ 3 !!!
Solution: a×b=b×a
=-3 ÷ 3
=-1

7. REMEMBER!!!

 To perform computations involving combined operations, you
must abide by BODMAS rule.
 Calculation within brackets must be performed first, followed
by division or multiplication, then addition or subtraction, from
left to right.

8. EXAMPLE
125 ÷ (-5) + 6 × (-2)
Solution:
1) Solve the division or multiplication first
2) Then solve the addition
= ( -25 ) + ( - 12 )
= -37

9. 1.3 POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE FRACTION
 +ve (Positive Fraction)
A fraction with a value greater than zero ( > 0) is
a positive fraction
eg: ½, 2/5, 6/5, 1/6, …
 -ve (Negative Fraction)
A fraction with a value less than zero ( < 0 ) is a
negative fraction
eg: -1/3, -5/6, -9/10, -4/7, …

10. Compare and Order Fraction
<0 >0
--------l---------l---------l---------l---------l----------l---------l-------
-3/4 -1/2 -1/4 0 ¼ ½ ¾
-ve fraction zero +ve fraction

11.  A fraction is always greater than the
fraction to its left
For example :
 ½ is greater than ¼
 -1/4 is greater than -1/2
 ¼ is greater than -1/4

12.  A fraction is always less than the fraction to
its right
For example :
 ¼ is less than ½
 -1/2 is less than -1/4
 -1/4 is less than ¼

13. TIPS +(+a) = +a -(-a)= +a
+(-a)= -a -(+a)= -a
See the symbols
CAREFULLY

14. EXAMPLE
 Arrange the following fractions in ascending and
descending order
1/6, -1/3, -3/8, 1/8, -3/4

15. Solution :
1/6, -1/3, -3/8, 1/8, -3/4 i) The LCM of 3, 4, 6,
and 8 is 24.
ii) Change the fraction
to their respective
equivalent fractions
with the denominator
of 24.
Ascending order : -3/4, -3/8, -1/3, 1/8, 1/6
Descending order : 1/6, 1/8, -1/3, -3/8, -3/4

16. 1.4 POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE DECIMALS
 A decimal with a value greater than zero is a
positive decimal such as 0.21, 7.89, 9.54, 8.74, …
 A decimal with a value less than zero is a negative
decimal such as -0.05, -4.45, -9.90, -3.54, …

17. COMPARE AND ORDER DECIMAL
<o >0
---l------------l-------------l-------------l------------l---
-2.22 -1.11 0.00 1.11 2.22
negative decimal zero positive decimal
DID YOU Ascending means increasing
KNOW??? Descending mean decreasing

18. 1.5 COMPUTATIONS INVOLVING DIRECTED
NUMBERS
 As integers, computation involving directed numbers
follow the BODMAS rule.
a) Involving two directed numbers
Eg: 4/5 × (8.2) solution:
= - (4/5 × 82/10)
= -328/50
= - 6/14/25
b) Involving the combination of two or more operations on directed
numbers
Eg: [ 55 + (-37)] × 6 solution:
= 18 × 6
= 108
