How can we
check
“Subtracting a
negative number
is the same as
adding a
positive” is true?

We can use the same


method we use to check
our answers when we
Suppose you subtract a –
b and it equals c:
a–b=c
5–2=3

To check if your answer is


correct, add b and c:
a=b+c
5=2+3
Yo u Tr y
a–b=c a=b+c
9–5=4 9=5+4

a–b=c a=b+c
20 – 3 = 17 20 = 3 + 17
If the method for checking
subtraction works, it should
also work for subtracting
negative numbers.
If a – b = c, and….

2 – (-5) is the same as

2 + (+5), which equals 7,

Then let’s check with the negative


numbers to see if it’s true…
a–b=c a=b+c
2 – (-5) = 7 2 = -5 + 7

It works!

a–b=c a=b+c
-11 – (-3) = -8 -11 = -3 + -

Integer Addition Rules

•Rule #1 – If the signs are the same,


pretend the signs aren’t there.
•Add the numbers and then put the
sign of the numbers in front of your
answer.

9 + 5 = 14
-9 + -5 = -14
Integer Addition Rules
• Rule #2 –
• If the signs are different pretend the signs aren’t there.
• Subtract the smaller from the larger one
• Put the sign of the one with the larger value in front of
your answer.

Larger value -9 + +5 =
9 - 5 = 4 Answer = - 4
Integer Subtraction Rule
Subtracting a negative number is
the same as adding a positive.
Change the signs and add.
2 – (-7)
is the same as
2 + (+7)

2 + 7 = 9!
