Well, a positive number minus a greater positive number equals a negative number. But it's impossible for a negative number to be subtracted from any number.
1000 subtracted from 750 is equal to -250. This is calculated by taking 750 and subtracting 1000, resulting in a negative value. Thus, 750 - 1000 = -250.
no it doesnt. two negative numbers equal a negative number. two postivie numbers equal a positive number. one negative and one positive number equal a negative number.
One (negative) is preceded by a - sign and the other (positive) is not. Negative integers have values less than zero, whereas positive integers have values greater than zero. If a positive and negative integer are made up of the same digits and in the same order (e.g., 2 and -2, or 896 and -896), then when added together they will equal zero. If, however, one is subtracted from the other, then they will equal twice the number from which the other is subtracted.
it is negative number
