Show answers and working
  1. 1. 8

    Start at 6 on a number line. Move 2 right. You land on 8.

  2. 2. 9

    Subtracting 0 is the same as adding 0. 9 + 0 = 9

  3. 3. 4

    Start at 4 on a number line. Move 0 right. You land on 4.

  4. 4. -4

    Subtracting (-5) is the same as adding 5. -9 + 5 = -4

  5. 5. -96

    Multiply the sizes: 16 × 6 = 96. Same signs give positive, different signs give negative. Answer: -96

  6. 6. 14

    Start at 11 on a number line. Move 3 right. You land on 14.

  7. 7. -30

    Multiply the sizes: 10 × 3 = 30. Same signs give positive, different signs give negative. Answer: -30

  8. 8. 27

    Start at 20 on a number line. Move 7 right. You land on 27.

  9. 9. -286

    Multiply the sizes: 13 × 22 = 286. Same signs give positive, different signs give negative. Answer: -286

  10. 10. -37

    Subtracting 20 is the same as adding -20. -17 + (-20) = -37

  11. 11. 25

    Start at -2 on a number line. Move 27 right. You land on 25.

  12. 12. -11

    Subtracting 8 is the same as adding -8. -3 + (-8) = -11

Common mistakes

What learners typically get wrong, and how to fix it.

  • Thinks −8 is bigger than −3.

    Correction: Further left on the number line means smaller.

  • Treats − (−4) as −4.

    Correction: Two minus signs together become a plus.

Teacher tips

  • · Use a vertical number line like a thermometer.

Parent tips

  • · Compare winter temperatures from the weather forecast.

Real-life applications

  • · Temperatures below zero, bank balances, floors below ground.
