What remains after performing a subtraction operation?

  1. Difference

  2. Product

  3. Quotient

  4. Remainder

The correct answer is: Difference

Subtraction is an arithmetic operation where the difference between two numbers is determined. The difference is what remains after the larger number is subtracted from the smaller number. Therefore, the term "difference" accurately describes the result of a subtraction operation. The other options, product, quotient, and remainder, are all results of different arithmetic operations and do not accurately describe the result of subtraction. The product is the result of multiplication, quotient is the result of division, and remainder is the result of taking the remainder in a division operation.
