When you subtract a number, you get the same results as when you add the opposite number. Why?

Mathematics

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, the opposite of a number is the same number with the opposite sign. For example, the opposite of -1 is 1.

So, say we have an equation where we're subtracting a number, for example, 2-1, which obviously equals 1. Now, if we add the opposite of 1 to 2, we get the equation 2+(-1) which still equals 1.

I hope this helps!

What is the greatest common factors of 120 and 6
horrorfan [7]
If we want to know the greatest common factor, we should ask: is one of the numbers divisible by the other? if yes, then the smaller number will be the answer!

let's try:

\frac{120}{6} = \frac{60}{3} =20

so, yes!
6 is the greatest common factor of the two:)
