SUBTRACTION OF INTEGERS

Subtraction of Integers 

Subtraction is nothing but the inverse of addition. To subtraction of integers from the given integers, add the integer with the opposite sign to the given integers. =>  a – b = a + (-b)

Example.1)  120 – 85 = 120 + (-85) = 35

Example.2) (-112) + (-45) = - ( 112 + 45 ) = - 157

Example.3)  (-75) + (+25) = - ( 75 – 25 ) = - 50
