Since 1000 is a multiple of 40... the next lowest multiple is 960. Therefore you simply subtract 40 !
which least number should be subtracted from 1000 so that 30 divides the difference exactly
The difference is that number.
what least number must be subtracted from 13081 to get a number exactly divisible by 87
Yes, by definition a factor divides a number exactly
It is called the difference. To me: minuend - subtrahend = difference

The difference is that number.
18 must be subtracted from 5694 to get a number exactly divisible by 43
smallest prime number that divides 300 exactly = 2
The subtrahend is the number that is subtracted from another number, called the minuend, that results in the difference.
It is called a factor
