Question

How do you evaluate `35+(-24)`?

Answer 1

11

Explanation:

Since a positive `(+)` plus a negative `(-)` is a negative `(-)`, We simply have an equation such as:

`35-24=?`

Now simply solve for your answer:

`35-24=11`

Always follow the rules of PEMDAS (if you use something other than PEMDAS that's fine as well).

PEMDAS stands for:

• Parenthesis (ALWAYS start with parenthesis).
• Exponents (if applicable).
• Multiplication (if applicable).
• Division (if applicable).
• Addition (if applicable).
• and Subtraction (if applicable, in this case it is needed).
