Subtract

Subtracting Whole Numbers.

Subtraction means take away (it is opposite of addition). The answer in a subtraction problem is called the difference. Subtrahend is the number to be subtracted from another number (the minuend)            minuend – subtrahend = difference

minus

 

 

 

To find the difference between two numbers, sometimes you need to regroup, or borrow, from another number. Example:

Borrow

 

 

 

 

When the digit in the subtrahend is larger, decompose 1 unit of higher value into 10 units of the next lower value, and regroup.
