-- 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.)
=205-200/205*100
-10 * (2-11) or -10(2-11)
Such that 64 is equal to 26, or two to the power six, 1/64 is equal to 2-6, or two to the power minus six.
minus 1
You can use "minus", "negative", "in debit" or "below zero".
1). Find the difference between them. Forget about plus and minus, just subtract the smaller one from the bigger one. 2). Write the difference, and give it the sign of whichever original number was bigger.

Since there is no "equals" in the question, there cannot be a formula, only an expression.
If you subtract 5 from 2, you get negative 3 (-3).
In math when you are given a negative and a positive number, you should write down the sign of the greatest number and subtract the smaller number from the greatest number. In the problem 3 - 9, three is the positive number, and nine is the negative number. This means you should write down the negative number's sign and subtract 3 from 9, and your answer should be -6.
36
Write 8 as 7 6/6 (7 and 6 sixths). Then subtract the integer part, and the numerator of the fractions.
=205-200/205*100
Subtracting a positive from a negative. You would write (this is an example) : -7-(+9)=-16 You don't necessarily have to put the parentheses and the positive sign, though sometimes it may be required.
