Normally people point out that the two negatives make a positive:

  • (-5) = +5

While this is true, I'll try to explain it an other way.

Explained with algebra

15 - 5 = 10

You can write this as:

15 + (-5) = 10

Now subtract -5 from both sides:

15 + (-5) - (-5) = 10 - (-5)

It's clear that by adding and then subtracting -5 from 15, the answer will be 15:

15 + (-5) - (-5) = 15

That shows that:

10 - (-5) = 15

So Its Answer is 15..
