equivalent to subtracting a negative
How are adding and subtracting fractions similar?
Subtracting a fraction is the same as adding its negative.
What are the rules for adding and subtracting integers?
when you add two positive integers the answer is always positive when you add two negative integers the answer is positive when you add one negative and on positive integer, the answer is negative subtracting two negative numbers gets a negative answer subtracting two positive numbers- the answer depends subtracting a negative and positive number- the answer depends, the positive number would have to be bigger than the negative to achieve a negative number, and if the positive number is less, than the answer is still negative
When Subtracting a positive integer from a negative integer is similar to what?

What is the rule for subtracting negative numbers?
The rule for subtracting negative numbers is 'when you are subtracting a negative number from a positive or negative, you must always add it.'Example: 3--3 = 3+3 = 6

What is negative 4 times negative 11 plus negative 22?
To multiply two numbers with negatives involved you first multiply them normally. In this case 4x11 = 44. The next step is to assess whether the answer is positive or negative. In cases where there is one negative and one positive in the multiplication, the answer will be negative. Otherwise, the answer will be positive. In this case, both numbers were negative so the answer must be positive. Thus we have 44 and need to add negative 22. Adding negative numbers is the same as subtracting those numbers. Thus the question is 44-22 = 22. Therefore, negative 4 times negative 11 plus negative 22 is 22.
What will be the difference when subtracting two integers with different signs?
Subtracting: Positive - Negative = Positive Negative - Positive = Negative No that is not the way it goes. It is positive+negetive=either counting on which integer is bigger negative+negative=positive positive+positive=positive positive x negetive=negative negative x postitve= negative negative/positive=negative positive/negative=negetive thanks The top is right though because subtracting a negative is like adding so you could never get a negative and subtracting from a positive from negative will always be a negative. The question was for integers with different signs so you don't need to do "positive + positive"
