Subtraction ProPertieS

Subtracting 0

When zero is subtracted from any number, the difference is the number itself.
Examples: (a) 45 – 0 = 45 (b) 125 – 0 = 125 (c) 4326 – 0 = 4326

Subtracting 1

When 1 is subtracted from any (non-zero) number, the difference is the number just

before (predecessor) of the given number.
Examples: (a) 71 – 1 = 70 (b) 128 – 1 = 127 (c) 1246 – 1 = 1245
