The absolute value of positive number is the number itself, so 
Example Question #302 : Numbers And Operations
Evaluate:
Do not use a calculator.
To divide two numbers of like sign, just divide their absolute values; their quotient will be positive.
Example Question #301 : Ged Math
Solve:
When a negative number is subtracted with a positive number, we will have an increasingly negative number.
Double negative signs will translate into a positive sign.
Sum the two numbers.
The answer is:
Example Question #303 : Numbers And Operations
Solve:
Evaluate the terms in the parentheses first. Double negatives will turn into a positive.
Simplify this expression.
The answer is:
Example Question #304 : Numbers And Operations
Evaluate:
A positive and a negative sign will be combined as a negative.
When a negative number is subtracted, it becomes increasingly negative.
The answer is:
Example Question #305 : Numbers And Operations
Evaluate:
Double negatives can be converted to a positive sign.
Compute the sum.
The answer is:
Example Question #142 : Basic Operations
Simplify the following:
Begin by simplifying everything that is found in parentheses:
Next, perform the subtraction in the numerator:
Although you cannot simplify the fraction, you can cancel out the negatives since you have a negative in both the numerator and the denominator. Thus, your answer is:
Example Question #143 : Basic Operations
Simplify the following:
Okay, this is complex. However, just do it step by step and you will surely get it correct! First, handle everything in parentheses:
Next, simplify each of the smaller fractions:
Now, remember that to divide two fractions, you need to multiply by the reciprocal, this means:
You don't have to do any more work, however! The answer is, of all things, 
Example Question #306 : Numbers And Operations
Subtract:
Convert double negatives to a positive sign.
Add and these numbers.
The answer is:
Example Question #31 : Operations With Negative Numbers
Evaluate:
Use the order of operations to evaluate this.
When there are double negatives, the value will be converted to a positive.
When there is no sign in between an integer and the parentheses, it will be multiplied.
The answer is:
