Remember that when two numbers with the same sign are multiplied,their product is always positive.
To find the absolute value of a positive number all the answer is is the number in between the lines. For example, the absolute value of [340] is 340. To find the absolute value of a negative number, it is simply the opposite (positive version) of the negative number. For example, the absolute value of [-56] is just 56.
to find the difference between a negative number and a positive number, you do the same thing as you would do for a positive and positive number. You just subtract the smaller number (which would of course be the negative) from the larger number (the positive). example: difference between 7 and -4 7 - (-4) = 11
The cube of a negative number is negative. Negative times negative is positive, but then you have the third multiplication, and positive times negative is negative. So for example (-2)3 = -8.
By treating it as a positive number. Since negative numbers include the factors of their positive counterparts and all positive numbers are greater than all negative numbers, the GCF will always be positive. The GCFs of (3, 9), (3, -9), (-3, 9) and (-3, -9) are all the same: positive 3.
