Got it! So, we have 96979 and 71492, and we'll subtract the latter from the former.

Step 1: We'll start by subtracting the digit 2 and the borrow 0 from 9 in column 1 and get 7.
7 is the first digit of our result.

Step 2: We'll start by subtracting the digit 9 and the borrow 0 from 7 in column 2 and get -2.
We add -2 to 10 and get 8 as the next digit of the result.

Step 3: We'll start by subtracting the digit 4 and the borrow 1 from 9 in column 3 and get 4.
4 is the next digit of our result.

Step 4: We'll start by subtracting the digit 1 and the borrow 0 from 6 in column 4 and get 5.
5 is the next digit of our result.

Step 5: We'll start by subtracting the digit 7 and the borrow 0 from 9 in column 5 and get 2.
2 is the next digit of our result.

So, 96979 - 71492 = 25487.
