In any subtraction sum such as 7 - 3 = 4, the number in the solution is called the difference.
If you are asking what the result is called, there are two terms for it: difference, and remainder.
It is called the difference. To me: minuend - subtrahend = difference
ther answer to a subtractiion problem is called the difference.
In division, the number being divided is the dividend, the number by which it is divided is the divisor, and the result of division is called the quotient.In fractions, the numerator is the dividend and the denominator the divisor.
The subtrahend is the number that is subtracted from another number, called the minuend, that results in the difference.
In any subtraction sum such as 7 - 3 = 4, the number in the solution is called the difference.
The numbers that are subtracted are called subtrahends. (if a - b = c then a is the minuend, b is the subtrahend and c is the result.)

It is called the difference. To me: minuend - subtrahend = difference
minuend - subtrahend = difference Think of SUBtrahend as the number that is being SUBtracted.

When you subtract one number from another, the result is called the difference. What does your question mean? If by "when two whole numbers are subtracted" you mean that you subtract one whole number from the minuend, and then you subtract another whole number from the difference, then the answer you get is another difference. In effect, you have one minuend and two subtrahends.
In the expression c - b = a then c is called the minuend, b is called the subtrahend and a is known as the difference (or result or answer).
Their product
In subtraction, the minuend minus the subtrahend equals the difference.
