Hi Brite,

Try the below code,
var c = parseFloat(a) - parseFloat(b);

There is no wrong in the above mentioned statements like
var c = a-b;

definitely it give's the expected value i.e 1005.72238 ...so, i feel you might have mentioned c = b-a instead of c= a-b hence it gives you negative value

if still gets problem let me know on which browser are you referring this problem

Thanks!
