Let me tell you something intuitive.
Once you encounter a negative number, add a 0 before the negative number, which looks better.
take for example
(- 10)+(+6)=0- 10+6=-4
(- 1/3)+5/2=0- 1/3+5/2=5/2- 1/3= 13/6
Or, if you see a negative number, put it behind you.
For example,-10+6=6- 10.
Or simply remove the negative sign.
- 10+6=-( 10-6)
