Answer» The CORRECT answer is (c) The minuend is left in its ORIGINAL form and the SUBTRAHEND is changed to its 2’s-COMPLEMENT To EXPLAIN: When performing subtraction by addition in the 2’s-complement system, the minuend is left in its original form and the subtrahend is changed to its 2’s-complement. It is then added to the minuend. If the result has carry, then it’s dropped and that’s the final answer. Else, if the result has no carry, then the result is again converted to it’s 2’s complement form and that’s the final answer with a ‘negative’ sign.
