Question

find the sum -4 + (-53)

also can you like actually show how to do the work for it?

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is -57

Step-by-step explanation:

If two negatives are being added they are added if it was a normal addition problem.

Ex:

$1 + 1 = 2$

Ex with negative:

$- 1 + - 1 = - 2$

The answer would also be the same as if added normaly only difference is to add a negative sign Infront.

$- 4 + - 53 =$

$- 57$

All you need to do it add 4 to 53 then put a negative sign since both are negative.
