Adding Integers worksheet with 17 problems for practice.

Let’s solve each problem step by step. We’re adding integers — that means positive and negative whole numbers.

Remember:
- Adding two positives? Just add them normally.
- Adding two negatives? Add their absolute values, keep the negative sign.
- Adding a positive and a negative? Subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger one, and use the sign of the number with the larger absolute value.

Let’s go through each:

1) 6 + 10 → both positive → 6 + 10 = 16

2) -2 + (-9) → both negative → add 2 + 9 = 11, keep negative → -11

3) -5 + 7 → different signs → 7 - 5 = 2, 7 is bigger and positive → +2

4) 0 + (-3) → zero plus any number is that number → -3

5) 5 + (-5) → opposites → they cancel out → 0

6) -9 + 5 → different signs → 9 - 5 = 4, 9 is bigger and negative → -4

7) -1 + 8 → different signs → 8 - 1 = 7, 8 is bigger and positive → +7

8) (Wait — there’s no #8 in the list? Let me check again.)

Looking at the original: problems are numbered 1 to 7 on left, then 11 to 17 on right. So we skip 8–10? That seems odd, but let’s follow what’s given.

Actually, looking again — maybe it’s a typo in numbering? The image shows:

Left column: 1 to 7
Right column: 11 to 17

So perhaps 8, 9, 10 are missing? But since the user provided this exact set, I’ll solve only what’s listed.

But wait — let me double-check the image description you gave earlier — you said “the user uploaded an image containing a task” and listed 17 items? Actually, counting:

Left: 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 → 7 items
Right: 11,12,13,14,15,16,17 → 7 items
Total: 14 items? But labeled up to 17? Hmm.

Actually, re-examining your text:

You wrote:

> 1) 6 + 10
> 2) -2 + -9
> 3) -5 + 7
> 4) 0 + -3
> 5) 5 + -5
> 6) -9 + 5
> 7) -1 + 8
> 11) -7 + -8
> 12) -8 + 7
> 13) -5 + 8
> 14) 6 + -5
> 15) 10 + -2
> 16) 10 + -9
> 17) -6 + 7

That’s 14 problems total. Numbers jump from 7 to 11 — probably a formatting error in the worksheet, but we’ll solve all 14 as written.

Continuing:

11) -7 + (-8) → both negative → 7+8=15 → -15

12) -8 + 7 → different signs → 8-7=1, 8 is bigger and negative → -1

13) -5 + 8 → different signs → 8-5=3, 8 is bigger and positive → +3

14) 6 + (-5) → different signs → 6-5=1, 6 is bigger and positive → +1

15) 10 + (-2) → different signs → 10-2=8, 10 is bigger and positive → +8

16) 10 + (-9) → different signs → 10-9=1, 10 is bigger and positive → +1

17) -6 + 7 → different signs → 7-6=1, 7 is bigger and positive → +1

Now let’s verify each calculation quickly:

1) 6+10=16 ✔️
2) -2-9=-11 ✔️
3) -5+7=2 ✔️
4) 0-3=-3 ✔️
5) 5-5=0 ✔️
6) -9+5=-4 ✔️
7) -1+8=7 ✔️
11) -7-8=-15 ✔️
12) -8+7=-1 ✔️
13) -5+8=3 ✔️
14) 6-5=1 ✔️
15) 10-2=8 ✔️
16) 10-9=1 ✔️
17) -6+7=1 ✔️

All correct.

1) 16
2) -11
3) 2
4) -3
5) 0
6) -4
7) 7
11) -15
