What is 60 minus 22?

To find the solution to the problem "60 minus 22," you start by aligning the numbers:

1. Write down 60 and 22.

2. Subtract the bottom number (22) from the top number (60).

When you perform the subtraction:

60 - 22 = 38

This means when you take away 22 from 60, you are left with 38. Thus, the correct answer is 38. This result is reached through straightforward subtraction, ensuring that you correctly account for the value being taken away from the larger amount. Remember that when subtracting, if the smaller number is taken from a larger number, the result will always be smaller than the original number (in this case, 60).
