Paano gawin ang addition ng integers gamit ang number line?

Posted on by

Pag tayo ay nag-add ng number, ang representation nito sa number line ay ang paggalaw papuntang kanan. Pag tayo ay nagsubtract (o nag-add ng negative number), ang represenation nito ay ang paggalawa pakaliwa.

Ang number line ay isa lamang sa mga representations na pwede nating tingnan kung tayo ay naga-add ng integers. Panoorin ang video sa itaas upang maintindihan ang nangyayari sa addition ng integers.

Ano ba ang number line?

Ang number line ay ang visual representation ng real numbers. Ang number line ay karaniwang nire-represent ng nakahingang linya na may mga numero at mga arrows sa magkabilang dulo.

Ang mga numero na nasa kanan ng 0 ay ang positive numbers at ang nasa kaliwa naman ng 0 ay ang mga negative numbers.
