    We are given statement " gained 20 pounds and loses 15 pounds".

    Note: We take plus or positive sign for gain word and we take minus or negative sign for the loses word.

    Gained 20 means + 20.

    Loses 15 mean - 15.

    Therefore, we can setup an expression as:

    +20 - 15.

    20 is a positive number and 15 is a negative number.

    Because we have opposite signs of numbers, we would subtract them.

    20-15 = 5 pounds.
