Why subtraction could be positive or negative.....

I will let c < a + b for now:

-a - b - (-c) is a negative number.

I will let c > a + b for now:

-a - b - (-c) is a positive number.

There are different situations that varies the result! :D

Division: Negative

e.g. \(\dfrac{\frac{-21}{-3}}{-7}=\dfrac{7}{-7}=-1\)
