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
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 +).
