Mathematics:

Operations with Negative numbers

If you wanted to subtract 10 from 17 (i.e. 17-10=x), but there was no zero, could

you do it?

Remember that 0 (zero) is not a number, but a place holder. It allows us to be

able to add and subtract, and also to tell natural numbers (or counting numbers) from negative

numbers.

Like this: {..., -3, -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3...}

The entire set of negative numbers, 0, and natural numbers is called

Integers

.

An even number is any multiple of 2 (what does that mean?).

So then what is an odd number?

What factor does any even number always have? Why?

As an equation, that looks like

x = 2 * y

, if x is an even number.
