Answer:
-5
Step-by-step explanation:
if you have a number line and start at -2, then what you need to do is
(-2)+(-3)
so when the bracket opens your question is somewhat like this :- -2 -3.
so this is a basic rule that whenever you have two negative integers we have to add them and the sign remains of the larger number. So here despite the sign you need to add both the numbers and forget about the sign right now.
2+3 = 5
Next step for the sign you will look forward to the larger number. That means the sign the greter number is having the answer will also have the same sign so here 3 is greater and its carrying a -(minus sign) with it so your answer will also be negative so the equation will be :-
(-2)+(-3)
-2-3
= (-5)
Hope it helped you . Have a good day ahead!! :-)
