Question

What is the difference between (-58) and (+35) ?

Answer 1

If the equation is -58-35, the answer would be -93. It would be -93 because you would KEEP THE SIGN OF THE BIGGER NUMBER (Whether it's - or +) IF THE SIGN IS THE SAME YOU ADD (If the sign is - and - or + and +) IF THE SIGN IS DIFFERENT YOU SUBTRACT (So that means if you have + and - or - and +).

I hope this helps!

Answer 2

To do this question, you are best splitting it into two halves: getting to 0, and then 35
Starting at -58, we want to get to 0
-58 + 58 = 0
Then, we get to 35 from 0
0 + 35 = 35
Now, add the two values together
58 + 35 = 93
The difference is 93
