Note: There is no SUBTRACT function in Excel. Use the SUM function and convert any numbers that you want to subtract to their negative values. For example, SUM(100,-32,15,-6) returns 77.

If you want to subtract something, you have to enter it as a negative number. Think of it as telling the machine you want to add into the total the number 6 you just entered, you want to add in the 5, take away or subtract the 9, and take away or subtract the 8.

Subtracting a number is the same as adding its opposite. So, subtracting a positive number is like adding a negative; you move to the left on the number line. Subtracting a negative number is like adding a positive; you move to the right on the number line.

When you are adding a negative number to a negative number, it becomes subtraction, where you start from a negative point on the numbers line and move left. For example, -3 + (-2). This reads “negative three plus negative 2”.

Rule 3: Subtracting a negative number from a negative number—when you see the subtraction (minus) sign followed by a negative sign, turn the two signs into a plus sign. Thus, instead of subtracting a negative, you are adding a positive. So, – -5 becomes +5, and continue normally with the addition.

To subtract integers, change the sign on the integer that is to be subtracted. If both signs are positive, the answer will be positive. If both signs are negative, the answer will be negative. If the signs are different subtract the smaller absolute value from the larger absolute value.

Subtracting Polynomials. To subtract Polynomials, first reverse the sign of each term we are subtracting (in other words turn "+" into "-", and "-" into "+"), then add as usual.

Subtraction of negative fractions follows the same method. Thus, if the negative fractions you are adding do not have the same denominator, you can make it so. -1/2, for example, can be written as -2/4, -3/6, -4/8, et cetera. In each case, the number at the top is always half the number at the bottom.

Example 2: negative − positive Lets subtract −4−7minus, 4, minus, 7. Step 3: Move 7 places to the left. We move 7 to the left because adding negative 7 decreases our number by 7. −4+(−7)minus, 4, plus, left parenthesis, minus, 7, right parenthesis takes us to −11 on the number line.

Value1 is the value you want to subtract from, and value2 is the value you want to subtract from value1. To add the MINUS function to a worksheet, open a blank spreadsheet in Google Sheets. As an example, enter '250' in cell B3 and '200' in cell B4. Select cell B5 and enter '=MINUS(B3, B4)' in the function bar.
