Subtracting Integers (Part 2)

The video tutorial explains how to subtract integers by transforming the subtraction into an addition problem. It uses the example of negative 2 minus negative 4, demonstrating the process of changing the subtraction sign to addition and the second number to its opposite. The tutorial then solves the new expression, negative 2 plus 4, by subtracting the absolute values and using the sign of the number with the largest absolute value. The result is 2. The video concludes with a summary of the method, emphasizing the 'same, change, opposite' trick for transforming subtraction into addition.
