         printf("%d\t", subtraction[i][j]);
      }
      printf("\n");
   }
 
   return 0;
}

Output

Enter the number of rows and columns of matrix
2
2
Please Enter 4 elements of first matrix
10
23
11
70
Please Enter the 4 elements of second matrix
1
4

Subtraction Result of the two matrices is as follows:
9         19
4         67

We can subtract two matrices, if they are both of the same order. That is they have same number of rows and columns.

We cannot subtract two matrices with different dimentions.
