Use number line and add the following integers:
(–1) + (–7)
As per the question we have to find (-1) + (-7).
Now, (-1) + (-7) = -1 - 7
To find -1 - 7 we will follow the given steps:
(i) make a number line.
(ii) start from -1 on the number line.
(iii) move 7 units to the left of -1 on the number line.
Hence, (-1) + (-7) = (-8)
