How to solve
For fractions, find a common denominator, then add or subtract the numerators and simplify. For decimals, use the integer sign rules: subtracting is adding the opposite, and when multiplying or dividing, same signs give a positive answer and different signs give a negative answer.
Example
-12 - 23 = ___
Answer: -76
Not quite. The answer is
💡 The LCD of 4 and 2 is 4, so rewrite: 12 = 24. Both numbers are positive and the first is larger, so subtract as usual: 34 − 24 = 14. So 34 − 12 = 14.
✓ Correct!

💡 The signs are different, so subtract the smaller size from the larger: 1.3 − 0.3 = 1. 1.3 is farther from 0, so the answer is positive: (−0.3) + 1.3 = 1.
✓ Correct!

💡 Both numbers are negative, so the product is positive. Now multiply the sizes. Multiply as whole numbers: 7 × 15 = 105. 0.7 has 1 decimal place and 1.5 has 1 decimal place, so the product has 2: 1.05. So (−0.7) × (−1.5) = 1.05.

💡 Subtracting a number is the same as adding its opposite: (−12) − 12 = (−12) + (−12). Both numbers are negative, so add the sizes, 12 + 12 = 22, and keep the minus sign: (−12) + (−12) = −22. −22 = −1. So (−12) − 12 = −1.
