who invented subtraction?
The minus, negative, or subtraction symbol is derived from a tilde written over "m" that used to be used to indicate subtraction. It might also be a shorthand version of the "m" itself.
The subtraction sign (−) as we know it today was popularized by the mathematician Johannes Widmann in his book "Mercator" published in 1489. However, the use of a symbol for subtraction can be traced back earlier to the work of various mathematicians in Europe. The use of a horizontal line to indicate subtraction became standardized over time, leading to the symbol we use today.

Obviously it was not invented. It was always just there.
