When is the sum of a positive integer and a negative integer positvie?
The sum of a positive integer and a negative integer is positive when the positive integer is greater. For example: 9 + (-5) = 4 In this case, the positive integer 9 is greater than the negative integer 5. Therefore, the sum is positive.
What is negitve plus positive equals?
When adding a negative to a positive, the answer is positive if the positive is greater, and negative if the negative is greater. In other words, subtract the smaller from the larger and take the sign of the larger. Example: -7 + 9 = +2 Example: -9 + 7 = -2
Can you get a greatest common factor for negative numbers?
Sure. But since negative numbers have positive factors and positive numbers are greater than negative numbers, the answer will be the same regardless of the sign. The GCF of 4 and 9, -4 and 9, 4 and -9 and -4 and -9 is 1.
How do you know when the sum of a positive integer will be negative?
The sum of two positive numbers is positive. The sum of two negative numbers is negative. The sum of a positive and negative number will depend on which number has a greater absolute value. 5 + (-4) = 1 5 + (-9) = -4
What are the rules in adding and subtracting integer?
Rule: Positive + Positive = Positive 12+12=24 Positive - Positive = Positive or Negative 12-6=6 | 12-13=(-1) Positive + Negative = Greater numbers sign in the answer 14+(-18)=(-4) | 18+(-14)=4 Positive - Negative = Positive 8-(-8)=16 Negative + Negative = Negative -12+(-12)=(-24) Negative - Negative = Positive or Negative (-8)-(-9)=1 | (-8)-(-7)=(-1) by, Patrick Macarilay AKA, macason
Sum of a positive and a negative integer is positive?
Not necessarily. It depends on which number has a greater absolute value. 5 + (-4) = 1 5 + (-9) = -4
What is negative 9 minus positive 1?
it is -8 because you are putting a positive into a negative number
Maths what does positive mean?
In maths there are positive and negative numbers. Positive numbers are all numbers that are greater than 0. e.g. 1, 9, 234, 0.123 Negative numbers are identified by a negative sign e.g. -2, -100, -2.75
Is -0.45 greater or less than 9 over 20?
-0.45 is a negative number. 9/20 = 0.45 which is a positive number. Positive numbers are always greater than negative numbers, so -0.45 is less than 9/20.
Does a negative number plus a positive number equal a positive or negative number?
If the negative number is bigger it's negative, otherwise positive I am not positive but the answer above maybe incorrect. If you think about absolute value any numbers you add must make a positive. Yes, depending on which number has the greater number. Example -8 plus 9 equals 1. You'll take the positive number sign because 9 is greater than 8. Another example 5 plus -19 the answer is -14 because 19 is greater than 5
