Mastering Integer Addition and Subtraction

This video tutorial covers the basics of rational numbers, focusing on adding and subtracting integers. It explains the rules for operations with integers, including how to handle same and different signs. The tutorial also demonstrates using a number line to visualize these operations and provides practice problems to reinforce learning.
