We can solve this together! We're beginning with 55357 and removing 35455 from it.

Step 1: We'll start by subtracting the digit 5 and the borrow 0 from 7 in column 1 and get 2.
2 is the first digit of our result.

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

Step 3: We'll start by subtracting the digit 4 and the borrow 0 from 3 in column 3 and get -1.
We add -1 to 10 and get 9 as the next digit of the result.

Step 4: We'll start by subtracting the digit 5 and the borrow 1 from 5 in column 4 and get -1.
We add -1 to 10 and get 9 as the next digit of the result.

Step 5: We'll start by subtracting the digit 3 and the borrow 1 from 5 in column 5 and get 1.
1 is the next digit of our result.

So, 55357 - 35455 = 19902.
