-- Remember which one was positive and which was negative, then forget about the signs.
-- Write down the one that was positive
-- Subtract from it the one that was negative
(Notice that if the negative one was bigger, then the answer will be negative.)
Subtracting a negative number is the same as adding the positive version. So 3- (-4) = 3+7. The same thing is true of all numbers, including fractions. So just add the fractions like you would normally do.
If you are adding a positive number, then this is the same as normal addition. For instance, 4 add positive 5 is 9. negative 1 add positive 8 is 7. If you are adding a negative number, then this is the same as subtracting that number. For instance 6 add negative 1 is 5. negative 7 add negative 2 is negative 9.
It will always be negative.
When you add two negative integers, the answer is still negative.
You can have negative fractions so it depends. it depends if you have a negative fraction you could have -1/2 but 1/2 is bigger than -1/2. negative numbers will always be smaller than positive numbers.
You divide the equivalent positive numbers. Then you add a negative sign to the result.
-1/2+7/10
A negative number divided by a negative number is positive. Therefore, it's the same as if both fractions were positive.
The same as with positive ones. Make sure they have the same denominator and add or subtract their numerators.
Divide as you would divide positive fractions. That is, convert both fractions to positive, then do the division. After that, apply the rules for dividing positive and negative numbers. For example, if one of the fractions is positive and the other negative, the answer will be negative.
Fractions are not integers.
Subtracting a negative fraction is the same as adding its positive equivalent.
you make it a positive because negative add negative becomes a positive

Its negative
A whole positive or negative number is an integer which has no decimals or fractions.
Yes. Although a negative fraction would have to involve addinig negative unit fractions. A positive fraction is a number of the form x/y where x and y are positive integers. The simplest solution is to add x lots of 1/y.
