What is positive 6 minus negative 32?
6 - (-32) = 6 + 32 = 38
Is it positive or negative answer if there is a negative plus a positive?
It depends. No matter what, you subtract the two quantities. If the absolute value of the positive integer is greater than the absolute value of the negative integer, your answer is positive. If the absolute value of the negative integer is greater than the absolute value of the positive integer, your answer is negative.For example:-32+11 is -21, because the absolute value of -32 is greater than the absolute value of 11, and 32 is negative.-11+32 is 21, because the absolute value of 32 is greater than the absolute value of 11, and 32 is positive.If this is all confusing, I like to remember a song my seventh grade math teacher taught the class to the tune of "row row row your boat:"same sign add and keepdifferent sign subtractkeep the sign of the larger numberthen you'll be exact!"(the word "sign" refers to negative or positive)

What is 256 divided by-32 divided by-4?

How do you evaluate 42 - - 32?
to evaluate means to work out or figure the answer... 42--32=10...? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Improved: You would actually right this question like: 42 - (-32); this is because you are not supposed to have two of the same symbols next to each other in a math equation. It looks sloppy and can get confusing. 42 - (-32) is the same thing as 42 + 32 because there are two negatives, and if you have previously learned this, a negative and a negative will make a positive in math. It's like have 42 positive marbles, then adding 32 positive and negative marbles, and getting rid of the negative ones (subtracting a negative just like you are doing in the equation). When you do that, you take away the 32 negative marbles, and are still left with the 32 positive ones PLUS the other 42 positive marbles, and you will now have a total of 64 marbles. So: 42 - (-32) = 64, and does NOT equal 10.
How do you simplify 5 dash 32?
