Solution

To subtract the subtrahend from the minuend, we need to add the additive inverse of subtrahend to the minuend.
Here, the subtrahend is $- 13$ and the minuend is $25$ .
So, $25 - (- 13)$ $= 25 + (a d d i t i v e i n v e r s e o f - 13)$
$= 25 + 13$ (As the additive inverse of $- 13$ is $13$ )
$= 38$ .
Final Answer: $25 - (- 13)$ $= 38$ .
