To add two integers with opposite signs . . . -- Ignore the signs, and write the difference between the two numbers. -- Give it the same sign as the larger original number has.
-- If the two integers have the same sign, their quotient is positive. -- If the two integers have different signs, their quotient is negative.
If the larger of the two integers is negative, then their sum is negative, regardless of the sign of the smaller one.
The answer depends on what you wish to DO with them.
Adding two numbers with different signs means subtracting the two absolute integers (without sign) and vice versa.

If you mean integers, well if you have two integers of the same sign that you are adding, add and the sign stays the same. If you have different signs, subtract and keep the sign of the one that has more. Regular numbers you just add them.
copy the sign then add :)
Add the number together and give the answer the same sign as the numbers.
-- If the two integers have the same sign, their quotient is positive. -- If the two integers have different signs, their quotient is negative.
If the larger of the two integers is negative, then their sum is negative, regardless of the sign of the smaller one.

-- If they both start out with the same sign (both negative or both positive), then do this: . . . . . add their two values . . . . . the answer has the same sign as the two original integers. -- If they start out with opposite signs (one negative and one positive), then do this: . . . . . forget about the signs . . . . . find their difference (subtract the smaller number from the larger one) . . . . . give it the sign of whichever original integer was the larger number.
-- Their sum and difference both have the same sign that the two integers have. -- Their product and quotient are both positive.
You get a product which is positive.
The product of the two numbers is them multiplied together.
