Question

Subtract:

$15$ from $-29$

Answer 1

We have to find $-29-\left(15\right)$

Here, Subtrahend is $15$ and minuend is $-29$.

To subtract the subtrahend from the minuend, we need to add the additive inverse of the subtrahend ($15$) to the minuend($-29$).

So, $-29-\left(15\right)$ $=$$-29+(additiveinverseof15)$

$=-29+(-15)$

$=-(\left|-29\right|+\left|-15\right|)$

$=-(29+15)$

$=-44$

Final Answer : $-29-\left(15\right)$ $=-44$
