Your answer would be 1, or 72+25.

What is happening in this case is a negative number is being subtracted from a positive. This means you are taking away a negative. The two negatives cancel each other out, and then it becomes you are adding a positive.

Another way I like to think about this is the two minus symbols combine together to form a plus sign.

Hope this helped!

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

If Donnie is 3 times younger than Donnie's dad, that adds up to four parts. In other words, Donnie is 1/4 his dads age. So, divide 56 by four and you have Donnie's age. The rest is Donnie's dad age.
