Subtracting a number by itself will leave you with 0, whereas dividing leaves 1. So dividing a number by itself will give the larger result.
When dividing numbers (or variables) subtract the exponents. Remember, an exponent indicates a kind of multiplication, it is the number of times that a number is multiplied by itself. If you are dividing by that same number, then clearly you are multiplying it by itself a fewer number of times. Division is the inverse function of multiplication.
It is called the minuend The number you subtract from it is called the subtrahend
Whenever you subtract a number from itself, the result is always zero.
Subtract the subtrahend from the minuend to get the difference.
