u may be confuse in the second step

so in the second step there are two - sign in the end. So u need to multiply those sign and write sign as per the mathematical sign formula ( thats what i call hehe ). So that means - × - = +. thats why we have + sign whicle taking common. If there would be + sign and - sign then we have to write - sign after taking common. As + × - = -

Hope it heped
