My dear Friend,,,,,,,Simply, if we use ‘+’ for adding.ex-  2+2=4.
But we use same‘+’ as ‘-‘ for adding   2-2=0
  By the reason we use the symbol to calculate the sum,subtract,multiple & division.
So,which are the symbols in the maths for the specific calculation.         Good question nice.........
