There are two basic rules for subtracting integers. If the integer you're subtracting is positive, then you decrease the value of the integer that it's being subtracted from by that amount. For example, 8 - 3 = 5 and 3 - 8 = -5. If the integer you're subtracting is negative, then you increase the value of the integer that it's being subtracted from by that amount. For example, 8 - (-3) = 11 and 3 - (-8) = 11 as well.
adding a negative
The decimal point is moved to the left by the value of the power.
Because that is how the opposite of a number is defined.
Never subtract an /a 0 .

Subtracting a negative integer is the same as adding its absolute value.

In the end, there is no difference because subtracting a negative integer is the same as adding a positive integer. 1-(-1)=2 1+1=2
positive
if they are two positive numbers, do it normally.If there is a negative and a positive, change it to addition and switch the SECOND integer sign. Only works with two integers in a subtraction question.Example: (-32)-(+2)= (-34) / (-32)+(-2)=(-34)
They are different because they both heve negative and positive.
Subtracting a negative is like adding a positive.
It can't be done!

Never.
