Sum of two integers = – 101
One integer is = -71
Second integer = -101-(-71) ( – + – in the bracjet makes +)
= – 101 + 71 ( different sings subtract)
= -30 ( same sign keep and add but different signs are subtracted.Hence, when we subract these the bigger one is -101 so we will keep the sign of – of -101 in the answer)
