You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Subtract:
\n" ); document.write( "\"-2.3+-+%28-8.8%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "Remember, to subtract a number, you add its additive inverse (the same number with the opposite sign), so...
\n" ); document.write( "\"-2.3+-+%28-8.8%29+=+-2.3+%2B+%288.8%29\" You can write this as:
\n" ); document.write( "\"8.8+-+2.3+=+6.5\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
