Question

Using a number line how do i find 5+(-3)?​

Answer 1

5+(-3)=5-3=2
And
5+(-3)=-3+5=2

Answer 2

Answer:

On the positive end of the line, locate point 5 and move 3 points toward zero (considering only whole number). So that, 5 + (-3) = +2

Step-by-step explanation:

Directed number can be easily located on the number line, which is a line with positive numbered end and negative numbered end separated by midpoint, zero.

So,

5 + (-3) = 5 -3 (since +1 × -1 = -1)

           = 2 (or +2)

This shows that the answer is two points away from zero on the number line (considering only whole number).
