- 1 should be subtracted from -6 to get -5.
Given: The numbers - 6 and - 5
To Find: The number to subtract from -6 to get -5
Solution: Let, the second operand be x.
Now, the number x should be subtracted from -6.
So, the operand x will come after operand -6.
Now, the equation will be:
- 6 - x = - 5
Shifting -6 to the right-hand side.
-x = -5 - (-6)
Now, when two negative signs (-) combine, it becomes a positive sign (+).
So, - x = - 5 + 6
- x = 1
Shifting - sign to the right-hand side:
x = - 1
Therefore, the required number is - 1.
