Question

Evaluate: -3 - (-2).
I completely forgot how to do this but I do know PEMDAS is involved with solving the question. Can anyone refresh my memory for a medal?

Answer 1

I don't need anyone too answer the question but tell me the first step.

Answer 2

Are you adding or multiplying

Answer 3

If you are adding or subtracting -(-2) would turn into +(+2)

Answer 4

Thats the thing, I completely forgot. But I'm sure if someone tells me the first step I will remember.

Answer 5

Which would be -3+2. If multiplying, distribute the - into -2 which will be +2. I guess both adding and subtracting have the same answer

Answer 6

I do know how to negative times a negative equals a positive.

Answer 7

-3+(-*-1)2=-3+2=-1

Answer 8

I don't understand @zaibali.qasmi

Answer 9

Oh I see it.

Answer 10

But I just wanted to know the first step. I didn't want you to answer the question :P
