Do percent signs go inside or outside parenthesis for negative numbers?
I believe the parentheses eliminate the need for the negative sign. For example: negative $100,000 would be expressed $(100,000). Using the negative sign, it would read: -$100,000.

The rule is if a number is positive you add them. EX: 4+4=8 But if the numbers are both negative... you forget the plus sign and just put the numbers together and use whatever sign they have. EX: -4-4= -8 you see? you are adding them put if they are negative, they go down the number line. not up. Just picture a number line, if you add a negative number to an already negative number, wouldn't the number go to the left? The answer is yes. Yes it would. :)
