Integers are the set of positive and negative numbers and zero. It is nothing but a whole number with negative numbers.
The properties of integers:
The following are the properties associated while performing operations with integers:
- Closure
- Associative
- Distributive
- Commutative
- Identity.
The table below will make you understand all the properties of integers regarding the mathematical operations:
Property | Addition | Subtraction | Multiplication | Division |
Associative | Yes | No | Yes | No |
Closure | Yes | Yes | Yes | No |
Commutative | Yes | No | Yes | No |
Identity | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
Inverse | Yes | Yes | No | No |
Now we will see application-oriented problems in this chapter using all the properties of integers.
