Got it! So, we have 125905 and 81888, and we'll subtract the latter from the former.

Step 1: We'll start by subtracting the digit 8 and the borrow 0 from 5 in column 1 and get -3.
We add -3 to 10 and get 7 as the first digit of the result.

Step 2: We'll start by subtracting the digit 8 and the borrow 1 from 0 in column 2 and get -9.
We add -9 to 10 and get 1 as the next digit of the result.

Step 3: We'll start by subtracting the digit 8 and the borrow 1 from 9 in column 3 and get 0.
0 is the next digit of our result.

Step 4: We'll start by subtracting the digit 1 and the borrow 0 from 5 in column 4 and get 4.
4 is the next digit of our result.

Step 5: We'll start by subtracting the digit 8 and the borrow 0 from 2 in column 5 and get -6.
We add -6 to 10 and get 4 as the next digit of the result.

Step 6: We'll start by subtracting the digit 0 and the borrow 1 from 1 in column 6 and get 0.
0 is the next digit of our result.

So, 125905 - 81888 = 44017.
