I have a math test tomorrow and I really don't understand some of the stuff! We're doing subtraction of postive and negative integers. Some examples are:

3 - (-6)

40 - (-14)


17 - 15


Can anyone please give me the answers to these problems and tell me how you got that answer? PLEASE HELP ME!!! I'll rate 5's!!!

Its actually reallly simple!! If your subtracting a negative number, its like adding a positive!! ie 3-(-6) is the same as 3+6!! and another ie 8-8=8+ (-8)!!!
