Rules for adding integers?
When you add: a negative and a negative: you get a negative a positive and a positive: you get a positive a positive and a negative or a negative and a positive: Subtract the addend with the smaller value from the greater one. If the greater one is positive, your answer will be positive. If the greater addend is negative, your answer will be negative.
When you add two positive integers their sum is always a positive integers when you subtract two positive integers is their difference always a positive integer?
diffrence will always be positive except when it is zero but is you speak of substraction operation it can be positive negative or zero
What do you get when you add a positive and negative number?
First, subtract the absolute values of the integers, then use the greater absolute value's sign.
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 adding a positive number to a negative number why do you always get a positive number?
-5+-3 = -8 ++ Add -- Add +- Subtract -+ Subtract
How do you add and subbtract positive and negative integers?
When adding negative integers, you subtract. (2+-1=1) When subtracting negative integers, you add. (2--3=5)
Why two negatives is a positive?
I feel that two negatives are positive because you add* your two negative integers* together, you would be doing this: -+- (negative + negative) so the response is, is that if two integers where both negative, you would add, just like if there were two positives, you would add, but not if you have different signs. (positive+negative) you would subtract. Just as the same with negative + positive. [REVIEW: if the sign is the same, add, if the sign is different, you subtract.] *=you may not always add *=integers- a fancy word for numbers.
