You take a number say 9... then you go a certain distance decreasing as you go from whatever number you subtract.
9-5=4
6-3=3
10- -4= 14
I AM IMPROVING THIS ANSWER I AM A DIF. PERSON THEN ABOVE.
I like to think of it as a bank account. If I start with, say, 10 bucks
10
but I buy an ice cream cone that costs 3 bucks
10+ (-3)
then I am subtracting from my account for what I have now.
10 + ( -3 ) = 7
I have 7 dollars left.
But say I buy a 10 $ meal
7 + ( -10 )
Then I owe the bank money.
7 + ( -10 ) = -3
