reduction
Reduction is like having a big pile of colorful blocks and taking some away so that you have a smaller pile. When you reduce something, you make it less or smaller. It’s like when you have a big sandwich and you eat half of it, the sandwich gets smaller.
Think about a big, fluffy pillow. If you squish it down, it becomes smaller and takes up less space. This is another way to understand reduction. You’re making something smaller or less than it was before.
Imagine you have a drawing with lots of colors, and you decide to erase some parts. The drawing becomes simpler with fewer colors. This is also a type of reduction. You’re taking away some pieces to make it less complicated.
When you clean up your toys and put some away, you’re reducing the mess in your room. Reduction helps make things more manageable and easier to handle. It’s like making your room nice and tidy by having fewer toys on the floor.
