Question

6+(-6)

I'm not sure whether or not it's cancelled out into 0 because a positive plus a negative should equal a negative right? I don't know...

Answer 1

multiplication
+ x + =+
+ x - = -
- x - = +
6+(-6) = 6 - 6

Answer 2

How is multiplication involved?

Answer 3

when there is parenthesis, there is multiplication

Answer 4

Oooh... I thought it was placed there because of the negative sign... is there an invisible one being multiplied because I doubt anything's being multiplied by 6...

Answer 5

this might help...when there is a sign, either positive or negative, before the parenthesis, and no number, you can put in 1.
Like this :
6 + 1(-6)
6 - 6 --- because 1 * -6 = -6
answer is 0.

Answer 6

I see.That makes sense... thank you both.

Answer 7

anytime :)
