Integer Multiplication Worksheets — Negative Numbers Practice

Integer operations — working with negative numbers — are the gateway to algebra. These worksheets focus on multiplication of positive and negative integers, where the sign rules (positive × negative = negative, negative × negative = positive) are the core skill. The range control lets you keep numbers small for the first pass or widen them for fluency work.

Sample problems (new ones below)

-8 × -7 = → 56-3 × 7 = → -2117 × 7 = → 11912 × -11 = → -132-3 × -4 = → 12-12 × 9 = → -10818 × 3 = → 54-2 × -6 = → 12-2 × -12 = → 2417 × 8 = → 136-4 × 8 = → -32-12 × 5 = → -604 × 5 = → 2019 × -1 = → -195 × -4 = → -209 × 4 = → 369 × -10 = → -90-19 × 12 = → -2288 × -9 = → -723 × 6 = → 1811 × -13 = → -143-18 × 3 = → -5410 × -19 = → -19014 × 20 = → 280

Teaching tips for integers

  • •Teach the sign rules as a short, memorable table: same signs → positive, different signs → negative. Drill the table before mixing it into computation.
  • •Use a number line or temperature metaphor to make negative numbers concrete before applying the rules abstractly.
  • •Keep the range tight (−10 to 10) while learning the rules; widen to −20 to 20 once sign handling is automatic.

Common mistakes to watch for

✗ Getting the sign wrong: forgetting that two negatives multiply to a positive.
✓ Count the negatives: an even number of negative factors gives a positive product, an odd number gives negative. Check the sign as a separate step from the value.
✗ Mixing up −2 × 3 with −2 + 3.
✓ Say the operation out loud: "negative two TIMES three". Multiplication is repeated addition but the rule is different — separate the two skills in practice.

Grade & standards alignment

These integers worksheets target the Grades 6–7 band of the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSSM). The relevant CCSS math domains are:

6.NS.C7.NS.A

The CCSSM are public, open-license standards; this alignment is provided for planning and is not an official endorsement by the standards authors.

How these worksheets are built (accuracy & trust)

  • •Problems are generated by a deterministic engine using exact integer and rational arithmetic — answers are reduced to lowest terms and never rely on floating-point rounding, so they match the matching UnitFig converter.
  • •Grade presets follow the CCSSM progression above; pick a grade to get age-appropriate number ranges.
  • •Content is reviewed for accuracy and refreshed each year (2026). Worksheet copy and examples are original and written for classroom use.

Safe for classrooms — zero data collection

UnitFig collects no personal information from children or any visitor. Worksheets run entirely in the browser: no account, no name or email, and student answers never leave the device. We follow a COPPA-aligned, zero-collection design so teachers and parents can use these sheets without a signup wall or privacy concern. See our Privacy Policy.

Frequently Asked Questions

What grade are integer worksheets for?

Negative numbers are introduced in grade 6 (6.NS.C.6) and operations with integers are formalized in grades 6–7 (7.NS.A.1, 7.NS.A.2).

Why start with multiplication instead of addition?

Integer multiplication has a clean sign rule that students can verify with a number line. Integer addition with negatives is covered by the subtraction generator when you enable negative answers.

Can I print just problems for a quiz?

Yes — toggle off "Include answer key" for the quiz copy and print a second sheet with answers for quick grading.

Last Updated 2026 | Problems are algorithm-generated with the exact NIST/SI constants used by UnitFig converters. Answers are computed programmatically and can be verified with the matching converter.
