12 - (-14) = ?

i got -2
is that right?

- and - give a +.

So -2 is not correct.
Please try again.

Okay, I tried again, and I got 26.

That's correct!

Yes, that is correct. The result of subtracting a negative number from another number is the same as adding the two numbers together.

To solve 12 - (-14), you can follow these steps:

1. Keep the first number (12) as it is.
2. Change the subtraction sign (-) to an addition sign (+).
3. Change the second number (-14) to its positive form (+14).
4. Perform the addition: 12 + 14 = 26.

So, 12 - (-14) = 26.
