     What are negative numbers?  Where do you find them?  How do you use them in real life?  These are all some questions that you might ask about negative numbers, and I am going to try to answer them for you.
     You can find negative numbers anywhere in math, I mean we should all know at least that much.  They are also found in real life situations such as banking deposits, debt, etc.  So, basically, they are found in money.  You might see a negative number where you are looking at a bill of some sort.  For example, when you spend money with a credit or debit card, it will show a negative number which is the price you paid i.e.- you paid $20 for a shirt, it would show up as -$20  showing that you paid that amount.  They are also found in temperature such as below 0 degrees i.e. - it is -15 degrees outside todayAll in all, negative numbers are used everywhere and everyday.
