Correct answer: B
In any subtraction operation (A - B = C):
Minuend (A): The number from which another number is being subtracted (the larger value in basic subtraction).
Subtrahend (B): The number that is being subtracted.
Difference (C): The result of the operation.
Since the instruction says to subtract (011100)₂ from (1011100)₂, the value (1011100)₂ is the starting point (the minuend).
