-8 - (-13) = - 8 + 13 = +5 ( minus a minus is a plus)
If the positive number is greater than the negative, it's a positive. Ex: 8 + (-3) = 5 If the negative is greater though, then the answer is a negative. Ex: 3 + (-5) = -2
3&5/8 +-5&1/4=-1&5/8
The result can be either positive or negative, depending on the sizes of those original two negative numbers. (-8) minus (-10) = positive 2 (-8) minus (-5) = negative 3
8 minus negative three or 8--3 equal positive 11. The double negative converts the minus sign into a plus sign and the negative into a positive.
3
5
(-5)-8=.............(-5)+(-8)=............-13(Negitive Thirteen)
-8 - (-13) = - 8 + 13 = +5 ( minus a minus is a plus)
-8
The answer is 3.
-7
Yes because when you subtract a negative, you're really just adding a positive. It really is 3+5=8, not 3-(-5)=8.
If the positive number is greater than the negative, it's a positive. Ex: 8 + (-3) = 5 If the negative is greater though, then the answer is a negative. Ex: 3 + (-5) = -2

You'll find that -1.8 is equal to negative nine fifths. Let's step through it. -9/5 = -(5/5 + 4/5) = -1 4/5 = -1 8/10 = -1.8
