Here are the terms related to subtraction based on your clues:

  1. Minuend: the first number in a subtraction problem.
  2. Difference: the result of subtracting two numbers.
  3. Strategy: a plan of action designed to achieve a specific goal.
  4. Subtrahend: the second number in a subtraction problem.
  5. Estimate: to form an approximate opinion of worth, amount, size, or weight.

Use various subtraction ?

Sure! Here are a few examples of different subtraction problems using the terms from your earlier request:

  1. Minuend and Subtrahend:

    • Example: In the equation \( 10 - 4 = 6 \), the minuend is 10, the subtrahend is 4, and the difference is 6.
  2. Estimation:

    • Example: If you want to subtract \( 198 - 76 \), before calculating, you can estimate the result by rounding the numbers: \( 200 - 80 = 120 \). So, the estimate of the difference is about 120.
  3. Problem-solving Strategy:

    • Example: When faced with \( 50 - 29 \), a useful strategy might be to round 29 up to 30 for easier calculation, so you can think of it as \( 50 - 30 + 1 = 21 \). This approach helps simplify the problem and allows for quick adjustment to find the difference.
  4. Using Larger Numbers:

    • Example: In a real-world situation, if a store had \( 500 \) items and sold \( 135 \), the minuend is 500, the subtrahend is 135, and the difference is \( 500 - 135 = 365 \).
  5. Comparing Values:

    • Example: If you need to find out how much more money someone has than another, say person A has $250 and person B has $164, you can calculate the difference to determine how much more A has: \( 250 - 164 = 86 \).
