Understanding Addition of Negative Integers

The video tutorial explains how to add two negative integers, -60 and -32, using formal rules and a number line. It covers the process of finding absolute values, summing them, and determining the sign of the result. The tutorial also demonstrates the addition on a number line, showing the movement from zero to the final sum of -92.

What is the first step in adding two negative integers?

• Multiply their absolute values
