Question

What is 90 plus negative 35

Answer 1

The addition of a negative is basically the same as subtraction.

Since your adding -35 to 90, your just taking away 35 from 90.

You would set up the problem like this:

90 + – 35

Or you could write it out like this:

90 – 35

Either way, 90 + – 35 = 55
