Final Answer:
5 - 1 = 4

──────────────────────────────────────

Explanation:
Let’s pretend you have 5 candies. You eat 1 candy. How many are left?
You count backwards: 5, then 4. So, 5 minus 1 equals 4.
On the calculator, you press “5”, then “-”, then “1”, then “=”. The screen shows “4”.
That’s how subtraction works — you take away and count what’s left.
