Question

Create a program that used a main method and a method named "subtractTwoNumbers()". Your subtractTwoNumbers() method should require three integers to be sent from the main method. The second and third numbers should be subtracted from the first number.

Answer 1

import java.util.Scanner;

public class num4 {

public static void main(String[] args) {

Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);

System.out.println("First number:");

int fnum = in.nextInt();

System.out.println("Second number:");

int snum = in.nextInt();

System.out.println("Third number:");

int tnum = in.nextInt();

//Call method subtractTwoNumbers

System.out.println("Subtracting the second and third num from the first yeilds" +

" "+subtractTwoNumbers(fnum,snum,tnum));

}

public static int subtractTwoNumbers(int fnum, int snum, int tnum){

int sub = fnum-(snum+tnum);

return sub;

}

}

Step-by-step explanation:

• Java is used to solve this problem
• Use Scanner class to receive three values and stored them in variables as fnum, snum and tnum for first number, second number and third number respectively
• Create the method subtractTwoNumbers() that subtracts the sum of snum and tnum from fnum and returns the value
• In the main method call subtractTwoNumbers() and pass the three numbers as arguments
