Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
Step 1: Understand Subtract operation direction
Subtract removes the top shape area from the bottom shape, leaving the bottom shape minus overlap.Step 2: Visualize the result
The resulting shape is the bottom rectangle with the overlapping part cut out where the top rectangle was.Final Answer:
A shape showing only the bottom rectangle with the overlapping area removed -> Option BQuick Check:
Subtract = Bottom minus top overlap [OK]
Quick Trick: Subtract removes top shape area from bottom shape [OK]
Common Mistakes:
MISTAKES- Thinking Subtract combines shapes
