If you mean for multiplication, it is because it is a double negative. If you think of the phrase 'I will not not go' you are not *not going* which means you will go. It is a similar case here.
A negative number. (ex. -9)
Clarify. Subtract four consecutive numbers ... from what? It appears you mean something like: 22 - 21 - 20 - 19 And the answer is NOT -44. It is -38 ... negative double of the LOWEST number. If this is what you mean, then you have discovered another rule of mathematics. It will always work. 1001 - 1000 - 999 - 998 = -1996 Exactly the negative double of 998

No, it's not a double negative, since there is no negative in the phrase. It's tautology (using two words that both mean the same thing). Unless you mean gay in the old fashioned way, of light-hearted and happy. Then you're calling them a happy gay, which should cheer them up no end.
Nie is a negative. The Afrikaans language almost always requires a double negative. "Dit was nie ek nie" = "It was not me".
No, the sentence does not contain a double negative.
Yes, this does involve a double negative (nothing and can't), but that does not mean that it is incorrect. If I were to say "There is nothing you can't do", that would be an encouraging and positive statement that is equivalent in meaning to "You can do anything". Examples of incorrect double negatives include "there isn't nothing" or "there ain't nothing" to mean "there is nothing", and "you can't do nothing" to mean "you can't do anything".
