a negative minus a negative = a positive. the two negatives put together make a plus sign. example... 5-(-7) = 13
-5 Here is a quick tip, when the negative number is larger, pretend it is positive and subtract the smaller one from it. Then just put the negative sign back on
if you subtract 0 from 5 is still 5. but if you subtract 5 from 0 then it would be -5.
5

25
-2 - 3 = -5
-5 then add +15 -5 subtract +15=10
Subtracting a positive number from any other number results in a lower value. For example, subtract 5 from 7: 7 - 5 = 2 It is exactly the same if the positive number is subtracted from a negative number. Subtract 5 from -3 for example: -3 - 5 = -8 The value of the result is lower and the result will always be negative.
Yes that is correct as for example -3-5 = -8
3-(-2)=5
2
-5+-3 = -8 ++ Add -- Add +- Subtract -+ Subtract
If you subtract 5 from 2, you get negative 3 (-3).
