What is Subtraction?
- Subtraction is a way to take one number away from another.
- It helps us find out how many are left when we remove some.
- We use the minus sign (-) to show subtraction.
Examples:
- Eating apples:
- If you have 5 apples and you eat 2 apples, you can subtract:
- 5 - 2 = 3, so you have 3 apples left!
- Playing with toys:
- If you start with 10 toy cars and give away 4, you subtract:
- 10 - 4 = 6, now you have 6 toy cars!
- Counting money:
- If you have 20 pounds and you spend 7 pounds on a toy, you subtract:
- 20 - 7 = 13, so you have 13 pounds left!
