a – b = - (b – a) , dengan syarat b > a

1. 10 + 20 + ... = 50 – 10 5. 50 + 10 = 75 + ....
30 + x = 40 60 = 75 + x
x = 40 – 30 60 -75 = x
x = 10 -(75 – 60 ) = x
-(15) = x
2. 20 - 30 + ... = 60 – 30
- (30 – 20) + ... = 30 6. 50 - 25 + ... = 35 – 40
-( 10) + x = 30 25 + x = - ( 40 – 35)
x = 30 + 10 25 + x = - (5)
x = 40 x = - 5 – 25
x = -(5 + 25)
3. 30 - 20 = 60 + ... x = - 30
10 = 60 + x
10 - 60 = x 7. 25 - 45 + ... = 60 – 20
-(60 -10 ) = x -(45 -25) + x = 40
-(50) = x -20 + x = 40
-50 = x X = 40 + 20
X = 60
4. 10 - 40 = 50 - .....
-(40-10) = 50 - x 8. 20 – 45 = 50 + 10 - ....
-(30) = 50 – x -(45-20) = 60 – x
-30 - 50 = - x - (25) = 60 – x
- (50 + 30) = - x -25 -60 = - x
- (80) = - x - (60 + 25) = - x
80 = x - (85) =-x
