Write two addition sentences where the sum is positive. In each sentence, one addend should be positive and the other negative.

10 + (-5) = 10 - 5 = 5
-11 + 20 = 20 + (-11) = 20 - 11 = 9
102 + (-1) = 102 - 1 = 101
-20 + 60 = 60 + (-20) = 60 - 20 = 40

We can create addition sentences with one positive and one negative number resulting in a positive sum. For example, 8 + (-3) = 5 and 15 + (-4) = 11. Both examples clearly show how adding a negative number reduces the positive number but still keeps the total positive.
