The following is the main result on the
integer arithmetic without multiplication.
Gonzalez does not need to invent how to represent
integer arithmetic; this can be more closely supported, leaving her the discretion to make localized judgments about a host of other important teaching issues.

Integer Arithmetic," William Kring
Students of these three countries show relatively high achievement in
integer arithmetic skills, using figures and graphs, evaluation/verification, proportional reasoning, translation, judgmental applications of knowledge in geometry, and computational applications of knowledge in geometry.
Using
integer arithmetic on a 32-bit computer, each word holds about four decimal digits, compared to seven for double precision.
The integer unit processes
integer arithmetic, logical, and bit-field instructions.
