Adding a negative number is the same as subtracting a positive so 74 - 46 = 28.
Alternatively think of a number line. Start at 74 and if you want to subtract a positive number or add a negative number you move to the left the appropriate number of spaces. If you want to add a positive number or subtract a negative number (that's the tricky one 74 - (-46)) you move to the right so 74 - (-46) = 120.

74 + -46 is the same as taking away 46 so:
74 + -46 is 28.
Hope this helps.
