Example Question #24 : How To Subtract Variables
Subtract in modulo 11:
In modulo 11 arithmetic, a negative number has 11 added to it as many times as necessary until a positive sum is reached:
Therefore,
Example Question #11 : How To Subtract Variables
Suppose you know the values of all variables in the expression
and you want to evaluate the expression.
In which order will you carry out the operations?
Multiplying, subtracting, adding
Adding, subtracting, multiplying
Multiplying, adding, subtracting
Subtracting, adding, multiplying
Subtracting, multiplying, adding
Multiplying, subtracting, adding
By the order of operations, in the absence of grouping symbols, multiplication takes precedence over addition and subtraction. Addition and subtraction are then carried out with equal priority, but from left to right, so the subtraction is performed second and the addition last.
Example Question #12 : How To Subtract Variables
Which of the following phrases can be written as the algebraic expression 
The square of the product of seven and a number
The square of the sum of seven and a number
The square of a number added to seven
Twice the sum of seven and a number
Twice a number added to seven
The square of a number added to seven
