A few tips...

  • Tip #1: When the minuend and the subtrahend are negative, the result will always be negative.
  • Tip #2: When the multiplicand and the multiplier are negative, the result will always be positive.
  • Tip #3: When the dividend and the divisor is negative, the result will always be positive.

Given two values:

  • x = -118
  • y = -114

Option A: x + y

  • x + y
  • => -118 - 114
  • => (Will be negative because of Tip #1)

Option B: x - y

  • x - y
  • => -118 - (-114)
  • => -118 + 114
  • => -4 (negative)

Option C: x • y

  • x • y
  • => -118 • -114
  • => (Will be positive because of Tip #2)

Option D: x/y

  • -118/-114
  • => (Will be positive because of Tip #3)

Hence, Option A and B is correct.
