Show answers and working
1. -3
Subtracting (-4) is the same as adding 4. -7 + 4 = -3
2. -8
Subtracting 3 is the same as adding -3. -5 + (-3) = -8
3. 11
Subtracting (-4) is the same as adding 4. 7 + 4 = 11
4. 6
Subtracting (-9) is the same as adding 9. -3 + 9 = 6
5. 190
Multiply the sizes: 10 × 19 = 190. Same signs give positive, different signs give negative. Answer: 190
6. 14
Multiply the sizes: 14 × 1 = 14. Same signs give positive, different signs give negative. Answer: 14
7. 144
Multiply the sizes: 8 × 18 = 144. Same signs give positive, different signs give negative. Answer: 144
8. 3
Subtracting 14 is the same as adding -14. 17 + (-14) = 3
9. -6
Start at -10 on a number line. Move 4 right. You land on -6.
10. 33
Subtracting (-30) is the same as adding 30. 3 + 30 = 33
11. 36
Start at 24 on a number line. Move 12 right. You land on 36.
12. -42
Start at -16 on a number line. Move 26 left. You land on -42.
Worked examples
8 − 6 = ?
- Subtracting 6 is the same as adding -6.
- 8 + (-6) = 2
- Answer: 2
-12 − 16 = ?
- Subtracting 16 is the same as adding -16.
- -12 + (-16) = -28
- Answer: -28
-28 − (-12) = ?
- Subtracting (-12) is the same as adding 12.
- -28 + 12 = -16
- Answer: -16
