Subtraction, as a mathematical operation, does not have a specific year of creation, as it likely developed gradually alongside early counting and numerical systems. Evidence of subtractive methods can be traced back to ancient civilizations, such as the Sumerians and Egyptians, over 4,000 years ago. The formal notation for subtraction evolved later, with the minus sign (-) being established in the 15th century.
