no not always. as long as the first number is bigger than the second number. if it is not, the answer is negative. 7-5=2 5-7= -2
If the negative number is bigger then the answer will be negative If the bigger number is positive then the answer will be positive. All you do is subtract the two numbers and take the sign of the bigger number Ex (+2)+(-7)=(-5)
It is 7.

Positive minus a negative = positive plus a positive two negatives make a positive 3- (-1) = 3 + 1 = 4 5- (-7) = 12

5/7 = 30/42 5/6 = 35/42 5/6 is bigger.
-5 has a larger magnitude. It depends on your definition of "bigger". If you say bigger means "has a larger magnitude" then -5 is bigger than -3. If you say that if two numbers A and B are in the set of integers from negative infinity to positive infinity, then A is bigger than B if A is closer to positive infinity than B, this means that -3 is bigger than -5.
well it depends if the negative is bigger than the positive or viseversa. lets say you have -5+7 it would equal 2. if it was -7+5 it would equal -2. In short, a positive number plus a negative number is the same thing as a positive number minus another positive number. Example: 3 + (-2) = 1 3 - 2 = 1
-2
-5 + +7 = -5 + 7 = +2 = 2
