7. import java.time.LocalDateTime;
8. import java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter;
9.  
10. public class SubtractMinutesJava{
11. 
    
12. public static void main(String[] args) {
13.  
14.   DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
15.  
16.         String currentTime= "2017-10-19 22:00:00";
17. 
    
18.  
19.         System.out.println("Before subtraction of minutes from date: "+currentTime);
20.  
21.         LocalDateTime datetime = LocalDateTime.parse(currentTime,formatter);
22.  
23.         datetime=datetime.minusMinutes(30);
24.  
25.         String aftersubtraction=datetime.format(formatter);
26.         System.out.println("After 30 minutes subtraction from date: "+aftersubtraction);
27. 
    
28.  
29.     }
30.  
31. }

6.  */
7. import java.time.LocalDateTime;
8. import java.time.format.DateTimeFormatter;
9.  
10. public class SubtractSecondsJava{
11. 
    
12. public static void main(String[] args) {
13.  
14.   DateTimeFormatter formatter = DateTimeFormatter.ofPattern("yyyy-MM-dd HH:mm:ss");
15.  
16.         String currentTime= "2017-10-19 22:00:00";
17. 
    
18.  
19.         System.out.println("Before subtraction of seconds from date time: "+currentTime);
20.  
21.         LocalDateTime datetime = LocalDateTime.parse(currentTime,formatter);
22.  
23.         datetime=datetime.minusSeconds(30);
24.  
25.         String aftersubtraction=datetime.format(formatter);
26.         System.out.println("After 30 seconds subtraction from date time: "+aftersubtraction);
27. 
    
28.  
29.     }
30.  
31. }

Output:
