Add the magnitudes of the integers (-4 has a magnitude of 4), then take the sign to the answer.
-- If they both start out with the same sign (both negative or both positive), then do this: . . . . . add their two values . . . . . the answer has the same sign as the two original integers. -- If they start out with opposite signs (one negative and one positive), then do this: . . . . . forget about the signs . . . . . find their difference (subtract the smaller number from the larger one) . . . . . give it the sign of whichever original integer was the larger number.
If you mean integers, well if you have two integers of the same sign that you are adding, add and the sign stays the same. If you have different signs, subtract and keep the sign of the one that has more. Regular numbers you just add them.
Add the magnitudes together, and take the sign. Example: 4 + 5 {both are positive} so it's +9 {or just 9}. Now: -3 + -2 {both are negative}. Add the magnitudes (3 + 2 = 5) and take the sign, so it's -5.
Adding integers, if they have the same sign, add their absolute values and keep the same sign. Subtracting, change the sign of the 2nd number and the add using rules of addition. Multiplying and dividing, Divide the absolute values, if the signs are the same the answer is positive, if the signs are different the answer is negative.
Add the magnitudes of the integers (-4 has a magnitude of 4), then take the sign to the answer.
Add the magnitudes, keep the sign.
Add their magnitudes, and keep the same sign for the sum.

You simply add the numbers: the answer has a positive sign.
you need to do the same thing as 2 digit integers is really easy

if the signs are the same you must add its opposite.
Make the demoninators (bottom numbers) the same by multiplying the top and bottom of one (or both) fractions, then add them as you would with integers.
Because otherwise you would only know how to subtract and add with the same integers. Not a particularly useful skill unless just those integers turned up!
Regular .. Example=-6+-5=-11
