What are Integers?

Looking for a class 6 math worksheet or maths worksheet for class 6 with answers? This comprehensive resource covers everything you need. Integers extend the whole numbers to include negative numbers: {,3,2,1,0,1,2,3,}\{\ldots, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, \ldots\}. They answer a simple question that whole numbers cannot: what happens when you subtract a larger number from a smaller one? The answer is a negative integer.

Negative numbers are everywhere in daily life. Temperatures drop below zero in winter (5-5^\circC). Bank accounts can be overdrawn (a balance of 200-200 means you owe money). Elevations go below sea level (the Dead Sea is at 430-430 m). Integers give us the language to describe all of these situations precisely.

In Class 6, students learn to represent integers on a number line, compare and order them, and perform addition and subtraction. This is the first time most students encounter negative numbers, so building a strong visual and conceptual foundation is critical for success in algebra and coordinate geometry in later classes.

Beyond this worksheet, SparkEd offers interactive online practice for Integers with step-by-step solutions and progress tracking — perfect for daily revision.

Key Concepts & Formulas

  • Integers{,3,2,1,0,1,2,3,}\{\ldots, -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, \ldots\}. Includes positive integers, negative integers, and zero.
  • Number line — Negative integers are to the left of 00; positive integers to the right. A number further right is always greater.
  • Absolute value — The distance of an integer from 00, always non-negative: 7=7|{-7}| = 7, 5=5|5| = 5.
  • Ordering — On the number line, left means smaller: 5<2<0<3<7-5 < -2 < 0 < 3 < 7.
  • Addition rules:
  • - Same signs: add absolute values, keep the sign. (4)+(3)=7(-4) + (-3) = -7.
  • - Different signs: subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger, take the sign of the larger. (8)+5=3(-8) + 5 = -3.
  • Subtraction rule — Subtracting an integer is the same as adding its opposite: ab=a+(b)a - b = a + (-b). So 5(3)=5+3=85 - (-3) = 5 + 3 = 8.
  • Additive inverse — For every integer aa, there exists a-a such that a+(a)=0a + (-a) = 0.
  • Properties — Integers are closed under addition and subtraction. Addition is commutative and associative. 00 is the additive identity.

How to Study Integers Effectively

How to Study Integers Effectively

1. Use a number line constantly — Draw one at the top of your notebook and refer to it for every addition and subtraction problem. Visualising jumps left (subtract) and right (add) prevents sign errors.

2. Master the subtraction rule early — "Subtracting a negative is the same as adding a positive" is the single most important rule. Practise 20 problems of the form a(b)a - (-b) until it is automatic.

3. Think in terms of real-life contexts — For (3)+5(-3) + 5, imagine you owe Rs. 33 and earn Rs. 55. Your net position is +2+2. Contexts make abstract rules intuitive.

4. Practise ordering sets of integers — Given {7,3,1,0,5,4}\{-7, 3, -1, 0, 5, -4\}, arrange in ascending and descending order. This is a common exam question.

5. Avoid common traps — Students often write 3+5=8-3 + 5 = -8 by wrongly adding. Always check the signs before computing.

6. Try the SparkEd Integers module (CBSE) or the IB module for adaptive online practice.

Sample Questions

Level 1 — Easy

  1. Place the following integers on a number line: 3,0,4,1,2-3, 0, 4, -1, 2.
  2. *Solution:* From left to right: 3,1,0,2,4-3, -1, 0, 2, 4.
  3. Compute (6)+4(-6) + 4.
  4. *Solution:* Different signs: 64=26 - 4 = 2. The larger absolute value (66) is negative, so the answer is 2-2.
  5. Which is greater: 8-8 or 3-3?
  6. *Solution:* 3>8-3 > -8 because 3-3 is further to the right on the number line.

Level 2 — Medium

  1. Compute (12)(7)(-12) - (-7).
  2. *Solution:* (12)(7)=12+7=5(-12) - (-7) = -12 + 7 = -5.
  3. The temperature at midnight was 4-4^\circC. By noon it rose by 1111^\circC. What is the noon temperature?
  4. *Solution:* 4+11=7-4 + 11 = 7^\circC.
  5. Arrange in ascending order: 5,9,0,3,7,75, -9, 0, -3, 7, -7.
  6. *Solution:* 9<7<3<0<5<7-9 < -7 < -3 < 0 < 5 < 7.

Level 3 — Hard

  1. Find the integer xx such that (15)+x=4(-15) + x = -4.
  2. *Solution:* x=4(15)=4+15=11x = -4 - (-15) = -4 + 15 = 11.
  3. The sum of two integers is 8-8. One of them is 1313. Find the other.
  4. *Solution:* Other integer =813=21= -8 - 13 = -21.
  5. Simplify: (3)+7+(11)+4+(2)+9(-3) + 7 + (-11) + 4 + (-2) + 9.
  6. *Solution:* Positive sum =7+4+9=20= 7 + 4 + 9 = 20. Negative sum =(3)+(11)+(2)=16= (-3) + (-11) + (-2) = -16. Total =20+(16)=4= 20 + (-16) = 4.

Board-Wise Approach

CBSE (NCERT — Ganita Prakash / Math Magic)
The "Integers" chapter introduces negative numbers through real-world contexts (temperature, altitude, banking). CBSE emphasises the number line, addition, and subtraction of integers. Properties like commutativity and associativity are explored through examples.

ICSE (Selina / ML Aggarwal)
ICSE also covers integers in a dedicated chapter with a slightly more formal treatment. ICSE exams include more word problems involving temperature changes, altitude differences, and financial transactions. The absolute value concept may be introduced more explicitly.

IB MYP (Mathematics Framework)
The MYP covers integers within the "Integers & Order of Operations" unit. Students explore negative numbers through investigation and apply them in real-world contexts. The IB also expects students to work with order of operations (BODMAS/PEMDAS) involving negative numbers.

Key Differences:
* CBSE: Context-driven introduction; number line emphasis.
* ICSE: More formal; heavier on word problems.
* IB: Integrates with order of operations; inquiry-based.
