Sunshine State Standards
Preview of MA.7.A.3.1 Use and justify the
rules for…finding absolute value of integers.
11-2 Comparing and Ordering Integers
Remember!
Numbers on a number line increase in
value as you move from left to right.
11-2 Comparing and Ordering Integers
Additional Example 1: Comparing Integers
Use the number line to compare each pair of
integers. Write < or >.
–5 –4 –3 –2 –1
A. –2

Additional Example 2: Ordering Integers
Order the integers in each set from least to
greatest.
A. –2, 3, –1
Graph the integers on the same number line.
–3 –2 –1

Then read the numbers from left to right: –2, –1, 3.
B. 4, –3, –5, 2
Graph the integers on the same number line.

Additional Example 3: Problem Solving Application
In a golf match, Craig scored +2,
Cameron scored +3, and Rob scored –1.
Who won the golf match?
1
Understand the Problem
The answer will be the player with the lowest
score. List the important information:
• Craig scored +2.
• Cameron scored +3.
• Rob scored –1.

2
Make a Plan
You can draw a diagram to order the scores from
least to greatest.
3
Solve
Draw a number line and graph each player’s score
on it.

–3 –2 –1

3
Rob’s score, –1, is farthest to the left, so it is the
lowest score. Rob won the golf match.

4
Look Back
Negative integers are always less than positive
integers, so neither Craig nor Cameron won the
golf match.

In a golf match, Melissa scored +6, Trista
scored –3, and Alyssa scored –1. Who won
the golf match?

The answer will be the player with the lowest
score. List the important information:
• Melissa scored +6.
• Trista scored –3.
• Alyssa scored –1.

Trista’s score, –3, is farthest to the left, so it is
the lowest score. Trista won the golf match.

Look Back
Negative integers are always less than positive
integers, so Melissa cannot be the winner.
Since Trista’s score of –3 is less than Alyssa’s
score of –1, Trista won.
