Suppose you owe $ 2 , but your father , without your knowing it , pays the debt .
The result is that you are $ 2 better off than before . In other words , the result of
taking away , or subtracting , a $ 2 debt is to increase what you have by $ 2 .

Next , suppose you have $ 10 , but wish to buy a picture costing $ 15 . This is like
taking away , or subtracting , $ 15 from yourself when you have only $ 10 , and
the result is that you go $ 5 into debt . It is the same as adding a $ 15 debt to the ...

Remembering that in arithmetic we have 2X3 = 3X2 , we may here suppose that
5X ( - 4 ) = ( - 4 ) X5 . But this last form ( being similar to the one in the second
case ) means – 4 taken 5 times , which is – 20 . Thus , we have 5X ( - 4 ) = – 20 .
