True or false the difference of two numbers is less than either of those two numbers

The difference of two numbers is not always less at either of the two numbers. (especially for negative numbers)

Take fo example, 40 - 30 = 10.

Here the difference is less than both two numbers.

But in 40 - 15 = 25

Here the difference is less than one of the numbers but greater than the other number.

Now consider, - 3 and - 5, their difference is given by (-3) - (-5) = - 3 + 5 = 2.

Here, 2 is greater than both - 3 and - 5.

Therefore, The difference of two numbers is not always less than either of those two numbers.

Your answer is False.
