What is subtraction?

Subtraction stands for the resultant number, which exists acquired by taking the difference of a number from another number.

Let a number be subtracted from the number b. Then the consequent number after subtracting b from a will be,

d = b - a

Here, (a, b) exists the real numbers.

It exists given that there exist 3 apples. 1 apple stand was taken. Let's assume after taking the 3 apples, that there exist x apples remaining.

As there exist a total of 3 apples and 1 apple stand taken, then to estimate the number of apples left, we must subtract 1 apple from 3 apples.

Therefore, the total apples left exist,

x = 3 - 1

x = 2
