The Number SystemApply and extend previous understandings of operations with fractions to add, subtract, multiply, and divide rational numbers.1Apply and extend previous understandings of addition and subtraction to add and subtract rational numbers; represent addition and subtraction on a horizontal or vertical number line diagram.cUnderstand subtraction of rational numbers as adding the additive inverse, p – q = p + (–q).
