24-(-16) = 24 + 16 = 40

-30+20 = 20 – 30 = -10

-45-(-45) = -45 + 45 = 45 – 45 = 0

-20-(-30) = -20 + 30 = 30 – 20 = 10

You first have to remember that when 2 negative signs are next to each other it turns into a plus. So 24-(-16) would turn into a positive sign. So it would be 24+16 or 40. A negative plus a positive depends which is greater. If positive is greater, the answer would be positive and vise versa. So since -30 is greater it would be -30+20 which is like 30-20 but add a negative sign and you will get -10. -45-(-45) would be the same as number one, -45+45= 0. -20-(-30) would be the same as 1 except it would be -20+30 and since positive is bigger it would be 10.

Answers if you are too lazy to read above:

1. 24-(-16)= 14=16= 40

2. -30+20= -10

3. -45-(-45)= -45+45=0

4. -20-(-30)=-20+30=10

24+(+16) = 40, -30+20 = -10, -45+(+45)= 0, -20 +(+30)= 10.
