What is the process to find the difference between two numbers?

Can you explain how to calculate the difference between various pairs of numbers?

Process to Find the Difference

When finding the difference between two numbers, you need to subtract the second number from the first number. Let's break down the calculation for different pairs of numbers:

  1. (a) 15 - 8 = 7
  2. (b) 8 - (-3) = 11
  3. (c) 16 - (-5) = 21
  4. (d) 12 - 17 = -5
  5. (e) -7 - 4 = -11
  6. (f) -18 - 6 = -24
  7. (g) 17 - (-19) = 36
  8. (h) 20 - 4 = 16
  9. (i) 8 - (-8) = 16
  10. (k) -60 - (-8) = -52

By following this simple subtraction process, you can easily determine the difference between any two numbers.
