This module was designed and written with you in mind. It is here to help you master Dividing Integers. The scope of this module permits it to be used in many different learning situations. The language used recognizes your diverse vocabulary as student. The lessons are arranged to follow the standard sequence of the course. But the order in which you read them can be changed to correspond with the textbook you are now using.
The module is divided into two lessons, namely:
- Lesson 1 – Dividing Integers with Like Signs
- Lesson 2 – Dividing Integers with Unlike Signs
- Lesson 3 – Solving Routine and Non-routine Problems Involving Division of Integers Using Appropriate Strategies and Tools
After going through this module, you are expected to:
1. describe and interpret division of integers using materials such as algebra tiles, counters, chips, and cards;
