About this worksheet
Each worksheet has 10 word problems adding and subtracting integers, with no expression given.
This worksheet gives no expression, so the student has to decide for themselves which quantities are negative - that a withdrawal, a drop and a loss are all subtractions. The changes are always described in words rather than printed as signed numbers, and the starting value may itself be below zero, so the answer is often negative and has to be written as one. Sheets can be customized, turned into flash cards, or assigned for online learning.
Student objectives
- Decide which quantities in a story are negative.
- Add and subtract integers across two changes.
- Write an answer that may be below zero.
Everyday practice
- Say whether a word like fell or deposited means a negative.
- Work out a temperature after two changes.
- Explain what a negative balance means.
