Answer 1

hey thechoco ur my fan but i never talk to u how come

Answer 2

Let's say you want the difference of 12 and 6.
12-6 = 6
Not always

20 and 10?
20-10 = 10
10=10, so not always

4 and 3?
4-3 = 1
In this case, sometimes it is true.

Answer 6

Answer 7

The chocoluver is right, but there's an even more dramatic example: 10 - (-20) = 30. In this example, the difference is actually *larger* than both numbers!
