make it a '+ negative number'.
Example: 6 - 7 = -1
6 + (-7) = -1
in a multiplication problem, you don't have to. in addition & subtraction, you do
Because a negative negative is the same a a positive, and because of the definition of subtraction and addition.
3-3=0
"How many ?" is counting. It can be the result of any math operation.In fact, "How many ?" is the question at the end of EVERY math problem. Whateverthe problem is, it always says "After you do this, how many do you wind up with ?"
addition and subtraction
addition Sum is the result of an addition problem. Difference is the result of a subtraction problem.
Subtraction, like addition, results in a sum.
When you have a negative number after the subtraction sign it turns in to addition. For example +7 - (-7) = 14 and (-7) - 7 = (-14)
no, the absolute value does not change the subtraction into addition. it does however, change the difference to positive ( if the difference is negative)
No. The sum is the answer to an addition problem. The difference is the answer to a subtraction problem.
In mathematical operations, addition, subtraction, and multiplication are governed by the order of operations, often remembered by the acronym PEMDAS (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right)). When addition, subtraction, and multiplication are used in a problem, multiplication is performed first, followed by addition and subtraction, which are executed from left to right. Thus, in a sequence where these operations appear together, multiplication takes priority over addition and subtraction.
Answer for an addition problem= sum. Answer for a subtraction problem= difference. Answer for a multiplication problem= product. Answer for a division problem= quotient.
multiplication - product division - quotient addition - summation subtraction - difference
You can use addition to check your answer to a subtraction problem because subtraction is the inverse operation of addition. If you subtract a number from another and then add that same number back to your result, you should arrive at the original number. This relationship confirms the accuracy of your subtraction result, ensuring that the calculations are correct. If the sum does not match the original number, then there was likely an error in the subtraction process.
A multiplication problem's answer is called a product. For a addition or subtraction problem it is called a sum.

A subtraction problem can always be written as an addition problem by using the concept of "adding the opposite." For example, the subtraction equation (a - b) can be transformed into the addition equation (a + (-b)). This representation helps to maintain the same numerical relationship while expressing it in a different mathematical form.
