Is subtraction a short cut for addition?
No, subtraction is not a short cut for additon. In addition, you add numbers to another number to make it bigger. For example, adding 2 to 3 gives you 5. You can see that 5 is bigger than 2 and 3. However, for subtraction, you take away numbers to make a number smaller. If you take away 2 from 5, you get 3. As you can see, 3 is smaller than 5, which proves that subtraction makes a number smaller.

Why it happens in maths that addition and subtraction makes subtraction?
Ok i can see where you would have trouble with this. When i first started Algebra, i wasn't quite sure how this worked. Here are some examples: 2-+2=0 the subtraction sign cancels the addition out. (2-2 is the same thing) 2- -2= 4 the two subtraction signs make an addition sign. (2+2 is the same thing) I hope i could help you.

How do you make a subtraction problem look like an addition?

EXAMPLE : 7 - 2 = 5 equates to 7 + (-2) = 5
