CBSE Class 6th ( VI) Mathematics Chapter 6. Integers: Exercise 6.2
Remember
- Every positive integer is larger than every negative integer.
- Zero is less than every positive integer.
- Zero is larger than every negative integer.
- Zero is neither a negative integer nor a positive integer.
- Farther a number from zero on the right, larger is its value.
- 1. Using the number line write the integer which is :
(a) 3 more than 5 (b) 5 more than –5 (c) 6 less than 2 (d) 3 less than –2 |
(a) 3 more than 5 | =8 |
(b) 5 more than –5 | =0 |
(c) 6 less than 2 | =-4 |
(d) 3 less than –2 | =-5 |
- (a) 9 + (– 6) (b) 5 + (– 11) (c) (– 1) + (– 7)
- (d) (– 5) + 10
- (e) (– 1) + (– 2) + (– 3)
- (f) (– 2) + 8 + (– 4)
- Answer:
- 3. Add without using number line :
- (a) 11 + (– 7)
- (b) (– 13) + (+ 18)
- (c) (– 10) + (+ 19)
- (d) (– 250) + (+ 150)
- (e) (– 380) + (– 270)
- (f) (– 217) + (– 100)
- Answer:
(a) 11 + (– 7) | = 4 |
(b) (– 13) + (+ 18) | = 5 |
(c) (– 10) + (+ 19) | = 9 |
(d) (– 250) + (+ 150) | = -100 |
(e) (– 380) + (– 270) | = -650 |
(f) (– 217) + (– 100) | = -317 |
- 4. Find the sum of :
- (a) 137 and – 354
- (b) – 52 and 52
- (c) – 312, 39 and 192
- (d) – 50, – 200 and 300
- Answer:
(a) 137 and – 354 | 137+(-354) | = -217 |
(b) – 52 and 52 | 52+(-52) | = 0 |
(c) – 312, 39 and 192 | 39 + 129 + (-312) | = -81 |
(d) – 50, – 200 and 300 | -(50 +200) + 300=-250+300 | = 50 |
- 5. Find the sum :
- (a) (– 7) + (– 9) + 4 + 16
- (b) (37) + (– 2) + (– 65) + (– 8)
- Answer:
(a) (– 7) + (– 9) + 4 + 16 = –( 7 + 9) + 4 + 16= -16 + 20 | = 4 |
(b) (37) + (– 2) + (– 65) + (– 8) = 37–(2 + 65 + 8)=+37-75 | = -38 |
