The difference between two numbers is the result of a subtraction. This can be either positive or negative, depending on which number is greater.
A negative number is any quantity that is less than zero. Negative numbers are the direct result of the arithmetical operation of subtraction.
Because when one rational number is subtracted from another rational number the result is a rational number. Don't forget that integers (ℤ) are a subset of rational numbers (ℚ).
The result of subtraction is the difference.{Blabale} Wow, two seconds after I submitted it, you gave me the answer. Wow, that's amazing.
To be closed under an operation, when that operation is applied to two member of a set then the result must also be a member of the set. Thus the sets ℂ (Complex numbers), ℝ (Real Numbers), ℚ (Rational Numbers) and ℤ (integers) are closed under subtraction. ℤ+ (the positive integers), ℤ- (the negative integers) and ℕ (the natural numbers) are not closed under subtraction as subtraction can lead to a result which is not a member of the set.
The difference between two numbers is usually the result of subtraction. There are two numbers that are 12 away from 7. One is 19, the other is -5
The MATHEMATICAL TERM for the result in subtraction is known as the DIFFERENCE.
They are both binary operations. The inverse of adding X to a number is the subtraction of X from the result and, conversely, subtracting Y from a number is the inverse of adding Y to the result.

The result of a subtraction problem is called the difference.
In any subtraction sum, for example, 8 - 3 = 5, the first number is called the minuend. The second number is the subtrahend, and the third number is the difference.
