What is subtraction?

Subtraction can be defined as the process of deducting a number from another. It is one of the most basic mathematical operators and is represented by '-'.

Given to us

Juanita made 30 sundaes,

15 of the sundaes are mint ice cream and

12 of the remaining sundaes are chocolate.

We know that the total number of sundaes that are made by Juanita is 30, and out of this 30, 15 are mint ice cream, therefore,

Number of sundaes that will be left = 30 -15 = 15

As it is given to us out of the remaining sundaes, 12 are chocolate sundaes, therefore,

Number of Vanilla Sundaes

= Remiaing sundaes - number of chocolate sundaes

= 15 -12

= 3

Hence, the number of sundaes that Juanita made that are of Vanilla is 3.
