Understanding Addition and Subtraction

Addition and subtraction are fundamental arithmetic operations used to combine or find the difference between numbers. Addition, denoted by '+', combines two or more numbers to find their sum. For example, `$$ 5 + 3 = 8 $$`. Subtraction, denoted by '-', finds the difference between two numbers. For example, `$$ 10 - 4 = 6 $$`. When performing multiple additions and subtractions, the operations are carried out sequentially from left to right. This tool simplifies these calculations, especially when dealing with multiple numbers and operations in a series.
