Expressions and Arithmetic Operators

Read this chapter, which discusses arithmetic operations in greater detail along with solving expressions with mixed data types.

3. Practice



Answer:
    -23 - 3
The first minus sign is "negation" and the second minus sign is "subtraction". The spaces in the 
 expression emphasize the different roles, but are not necessary. The following expression is 
equivalent:
    -23-3
