    BASIC ALGEBRAIC OPERATIONS

    BMGT 22 – Quantitative Techniques in Business


    Law of Signed Numbers
    I. Addition
    Like Signs:

    To add two numbers having like signs, find the sum of


    their absolute values (values regardless of the sign) and
    prefix the common sign. The absence of a sign before a
    numeral means it is positive.

    Law of Signed Numbers
    I. Addition
    Examples of Like Signs:

    1) - 3 – 4 = - 7
    2) - 10 – 20 – 12 = - 42
    3) 10 + 100 + 40 = 150

    Law of Signed Numbers
    I. Addition
    Unlike Signs:

    To add two numbers having unlike signs, find the


    difference of their absolute values and prefix the sign of the
    greater absolute value.

    BMGT 22 – Quantitative Techniques in Business


    Law of Signed Numbers
    I. Addition
    Examples of Unlike Signs:

    1) (- 3) + (4) = 1
    2) (12) + (- 3) = 9
    3) 12 + 4 + (- 15) = 1
    4) - 15 + 12 – 7 = - 10

    Law of Signed Numbers
    II. Subtraction
    To subtract two numbers, change the sign of the subtrahend,
    then follow the rules of addition of signed numbers.

    BMGT 22 – Quantitative Techniques in Business


    Law of Signed Numbers
    II. Subtraction
    Examples:

    1) (- 10) – (- 18) = - 10 + 18 = 8
    2) 12 – (- 15) = 12 + 15 = 27
    3) 20 – (100) = 20 – 100 = - 80

    Law of Signed Numbers
    II. Subtraction
    Examples: (Vertical Subtraction)

    1) - 10 2) 12 3) 20 4) -8
    - 18 - 15 100 + 10
    + 8 27 - 80 - 18

    BMGT 22 – Quantitative Techniques in Business


    Law of Signed Numbers
    II. Subtraction
    Examples:

    1) 10 – (3 + 2) = 10 – 3 – 2 = 5
    2) - (3 – 4 + 2) – (3 – 5) = - 3 + 4 – 2 – 3 + 5 = 1
    3) - 5 – (- 10) = - 5 + 10 = 5

    Law of Signed Numbers
    III. Multiplication
    The product of two numbers having like signs is positive,
    while the product of two numbers having unlike signs is
    negative.

    Law of Signed Numbers
    III. Multiplication
    Examples:

    1) (- 4) (- 6) = 24
    2) (4) (6) = 24
    3) (- 4) (6) = - 24
    4) (4) (- 6) = - 24

    Law of Signed Numbers
    IV. Division
    The quotient of two numbers having like signs is positive,
    while the quotient of two numbers having unlike signs is
    negative.

    Law of Signed Numbers
    IV. Division
    Examples:

    1) (- 24) ÷ (- 4) = 6
    2) (24) ÷ (4) = 6
    3) (- 24) ÷ (4) = - 6
    4) (24) ÷ (- 4) = - 6
