Well, isn't that just a happy little question! The number from which another number is being subtracted is called the minuend. It's like the starting point for our painting, giving us a foundation to work from. Just remember, there are no mistakes in math, only happy accidents!

In a subtraction sum, for example, 8 - 3 = 5, the first number is called the minuend. The second number is called the subtrahend, while the third number is the difference. Therefore, the number from which you are subtracting is called the minuend.
