Okay so this is going to be confusing but work from right to left. since you can’t do 0-5, borrow from the one next to the zero on the top, cross out the one and put zero and add a one on top of the zero which makes it 10. now you can do 10-5 to get 5. put the five down below the line. next solve the second column of numbers ( second to the right). since you cannot do 0- 3, like the last one, you have to borrow from the 7 over to the left. take one from there and cross the seven out and put a six. now you have 10-3 which is 7. put the 7 down. now do move to the next column and do 6-2 to get 4. put the four down below the line. move to the next column and do 2-2 to get 0. put the zero down below the line. lastly, we know the answer has to be negative so we are going to do 2-7 to get -5. put -5 down below the line and together to get the answer -502,275. i know that was very confusing but i hope it helped a little bit. i added a picture to clarify a little
