Understanding Subtraction and Addition of Integers

The video tutorial explains how to evaluate expressions involving subtraction by converting them into addition problems. It covers three examples, demonstrating the process of rewriting subtraction as addition, applying rules for adding integers, and using the order of operations. The tutorial emphasizes understanding the equivalence of subtracting a negative number to adding a positive one and provides step-by-step solutions to each example.

What is the primary method used to evaluate subtraction expressions in this video?

• Converting them into division problems
