We can solve this together! We're beginning with 79871 and removing 59426 from it.

Step 1: We'll start by subtracting the digit 6 and the borrow 0 from 1 in column 1 and get -5.
We add -5 to 10 and get 5 as the first digit of the result.

Step 2: We'll start by subtracting the digit 2 and the borrow 1 from 7 in column 2 and get 4.
4 is the next digit of our result.

Step 3: We'll start by subtracting the digit 4 and the borrow 0 from 8 in column 3 and get 4.
4 is the next digit of our result.

Step 4: We'll start by subtracting the digit 9 and the borrow 0 from 9 in column 4 and get 0.
0 is the next digit of our result.

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

So, 79871 - 59426 = 20445.
