One way they come into play is with money. Whenever you spend your money on an item or owe someone money you have a negative number. Say you owe $10 and have $20 in your wallet, well then you have 20-10=10 which is the same as 20+(-10)=10. Subtraction is really the same thing as adding a negative number to a positive number.
