            SubtrACtion

            We have learnt how to subtract numbers earlier.                      Th H      T O

            To recall the concept, have a look at the following                   3   4    3   5
            terms and properties related to subtraction.                                               Minuend
                                                                             –        2    4   8        Subtrahend
            In  a subtraction,  the number being  subtracted
            is  called the  subtrahend, and the  number from                      3   1    8   7        Difference
            which it is subtracted is called the minuend. The

            answer is their difference.
