A subdomain is the section of the web address that is before a domain name and you've quite possibly seen a lot of subdomains while exploring the Web. As an example, many sites like Wikipedia have versions a number of languages using subdomains - en.wikipedia.org, de.wikipedia.org etc. The advantage of using a subdomain is that it can have a separate website and its own records, so you can even host it on another server. The practical use is that you can have a supplementary website, such as an e-learning portal for pupils aside from the primary school site. If you work with subdomains as opposed to subfolders, it'll be much easier to perform maintenance or to upgrade a specific website, not mentioning that it'll be more safe to have the websites separate from one another.
