-6
Depends which has the larger absolute value: Eg: -6 - (-10) = -6 + 10 = 4, a positive answer -6 - (-4) = -6 + 4 = -2, a negative answer
-12+6= -6
Rule: Positive + Positive = Positive 12+12=24 Positive - Positive = Positive or Negative 12-6=6 | 12-13=(-1) Positive + Negative = Greater numbers sign in the answer 14+(-18)=(-4) | 18+(-14)=4 Positive - Negative = Positive 8-(-8)=16 Negative + Negative = Negative -12+(-12)=(-24) Negative - Negative = Positive or Negative (-8)-(-9)=1 | (-8)-(-7)=(-1) by, Patrick Macarilay AKA, macason
Pretend the negative number is positivedivide the positive number by a positive numbermake the result negative.For example, divide 12 by -6:Pretend -6 is 6divide 12 by 6 to get 2make the result negative to give -2Thus 12 ÷ -6 = -2
Positive 12 plus negative 18 equals negative 6. This is because when you add a positive number to a negative number, you effectively subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger absolute value. In this case, 18 is larger than 12, so 18 minus 12 equals 6, and since the result is from a negative number, the final answer is negative 6.
A negative and a negative can yield a positive result in some cases.SubtractionSubtracting a negative number is the same as adding its negative value, which is positive. So if the subtracted number is larger in value, the answer will be positive.(-4) - (-3) = (-4) + 3 = (-1) * the subtracted number was not large enough(-4) - (-8) = (-4) + 8 = 4 *the subtracted number was large enough to yield a positiveMultiplication and DivisionWhenever a negative number and a negative number are multiplied or divided, the negative signs "cancel out" and the result is positive.(-2) x (-3) = 6(-6) / (-3) = 2A multiplication or division involving one negative and one positive will, however, have a negative result.

Pretend the negative number is positivedivide the positive number by a positive numbermake the result negative.For example, divide 12 by -6:Pretend -6 is 6divide 12 by 6 to get 2make the result negative to give -2Thus 12 ÷ -6 = -2
-6 x 12 = -72
-18. Subtracting a positive number has the same effect as adding a negative.
-12A negative times a positive is always a negative.A negative times a negative is always positive.
a negative timesa positive is negative a negative times a negative is positive -6 x - 2 = +12 -10 x -9 = + 90 12 + 90 = 102

Negative 6 times 2 is negative 12. It's like taking 6 steps back twice - you end up 12 steps in the opposite direction. So, buckle up and embrace the negativity, honey!
