    In Section 1.2, we stated that “Subtraction is the opposite of addition.” Thus, to subtract 4 from 7, we walked seven units to the right on the number line, but then walked 4 units in the opposite dir...In Section 1.2, we stated that “Subtraction is the opposite of addition.” Thus, to subtract 4 from 7, we walked seven units to the right on the number line, but then walked 4 units in the opposite direction (to the left), as shown in Figure \PageIndex1. The key phrase is “add the opposite.” Thus, the subtraction 7 − 4 becomes the addition 7 + (−4), which we would picture on the number line as shown in Figure \PageIndex2.
