Subtracting lowest number from several numbers

Question

I have two numbers. I want the lower number to be the subtracted from both values.

x: 1000
y: 200
=> result: x = 800 and y = 0.

The following is kinda ugly to me, so is there a better approach I could do this?

if (x <= y) {
    y = y - x;
    x = 0
} else {
    x = x - y;
    y = 0;
}

Answer 1

This should do it:

int min = Math.min(x, y);
x -= min;
y -= min;

Answer 2

You can do following:

x = x - y;
y = 0;

if(x<0)
{
    y = -x
    x = 0;
}
