Tips to Add Negative and Positive Numbers:
1.) Adding a negative number to a positive number is subtracting it.
example: 5 + (-3) = 5 - 3
2.) Adding a positive number to a smaller negative number is subtracting the smaller number by the larger one.
example: -3 + 5 = 5 - 3
3.) Adding a positive number to a larger negative number is having the positive number subtracted by the larger negative.
example: -5 + 3 = 3 - 5 (but the final answer needs a negative sign)
4.) Adding a negative number to another negative number is adding the numbers together, but with a negative sign in the final calculation.
example: -3 + (-2) = 3 + 2 (but the final answer needs a negative sign)
