An integer is any positive or negative whole number or zero. E.g. (−2), 0, 153 are all examples of integers.

A number is in decimal form when the decimal point is shown and there are digits to the right of the decimal point.

A digit is one of the symbols of a number system. In our number system we use the digits 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9.

Problem solving with integers and decimals

Pupils use their understanding of place value and fluency with decimals from this unit in order to extend this understanding to fractions.  In the future unit, pupils will be asked to compare and order both fractions and decimals and will assess when conversion is required.

The prior unit on factors, multiples, squares and cubes helped pupils build on their understanding that any positive integer can be expressed as a product of its factors. This skill is used here to explore multiplying and dividing with decimals.

In this unit pupils develop their ability and efficacy with the four operations including more complicated and challenging calculations involving fractions, decimals and negative numbers. This leads into an exploration of the priority order of operations.

Arithmetic procedures with integers and decimals

An integer is any positive or negative whole number or zero. E.g. -2, 0, 153 are all examples of integers.

The additive inverse of a number is a number that, when added to the original number, gives the sum of 0.

A number and its additive inverse make a zero pair.

The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero. E.g. 5 and (−5) are both 5 away from zero and so both have an absolute value of 5

The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero. E.g. 5 and (−5) are both 5 away from zero and so both have an absolute value of 5.

Metric units are based around the standard units of metre, gram and litre.

The absolute value of a number is its distance from zero. E.g. 5 and (-5) are both 5 away from zero and so both have an absolute value of 5.

Partitioning is the act of splitting an object or value down into smaller parts.

A product is the result of two or more numbers multiplied together.

Factorising means to express a term as the product of its factors.

The divisor is the number by which the dividend is divided.

The quotient is the integer result of division.

An operation is commutative if the values it is operating on can be written in either order without changing the calculation.

The associative law states that a repeated application of the operation produces the same result regardless how pairs of values are grouped.

The distributive law says that multiplying a sum is the same as multiplying each addend and summing the result.

Evaluate means to find the value of a numerical or an algebraic expression.

An integer is any positive or negative whole number or zero.
