Missing Subtrahend Calculator
Input the minuend and the difference to instantly calculate the subtrahend.
How to Calculate the Subtrahend
Let \( A \) represent the minuend, \( B \) the subtrahend, and \( C \) the difference. To find \( B \), follow these steps:
- Establish the Formula: The subtraction relationship is expressed as:
\( A - B = C \)
- Solve for \( B \): Rearrange the formula to calculate \( B \):
\( B = A - C \)
The result \( B \) is the value of the subtrahend.
Examples
Example 1: The minuend is 50 and the difference is 20, find the subtrahend.
Solution:
\( B = 50 - 20 = 30 \)
Result: The subtrahend is 30.
Example 2: The minuend is 80 and the difference is 15, find the subtrahend.
Solution:
\( B = 80 - 15 = 65 \)
Result: The subtrahend is 65.
Example 3: The minuend is 200 and the difference is 75, find the subtrahend.
Solution:
\( B = 200 - 75 = 125 \)
Result: The subtrahend is 125.
