1987-34 = 1953
Jim was born in 1953

It is 2013 now

negative * negative = positive
positive * positive = positive

negative * positive = negative
positive * negative = negative

If the signs are the same the answer is positive
If the signs are opposites the answer is negative

Hope this helps, it is a very important concept for you to grasp.
