Solution

The question seems to be a bit unclear, but I'll try to explain it based on my understanding.

In digital logic and computing, XOR (Exclusive OR) is a logical operation that outputs true or 1 only when the number of true inputs is odd.

In the context of subtraction, if we are considering binary numbers, the XOR operation is used to perform the subtraction. Here's how:

  1. The XOR operation is performed on the minuend and subtrahend. This gives the binary difference.
  2. The binary Borrow is calculated by inverting the minuend, performing an AND operation with the subtrahend, and then shifting right.

So, to answer your question, in the subtraction operation, if the XOR result of the minuend and subtrahend is 1, the operation performed is subtraction itself, not addition, division, or multiplication.
