when we add negative number to the positive number we just subtract the smaller number from the larger number and put the sign or the larger number after words

examples:- First


5 + ( - 2) = 5 - 2 = 3

like here we put + in front of 3 as larger number 5 is positive

second


- 7 + 5 = - 2

we put negative because 7 is larger then 5 and 7 is negative
