Got it! So, we have 588449 and 20048, and we'll subtract the latter from the former.

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

Step 2: We'll start by subtracting the digit 4 and the borrow 0 from 4 in column 2 and get 0.
0 is the next digit of our result.

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

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

Step 5: We'll start by subtracting the digit 2 and the borrow 0 from 8 in column 5 and get 6.
6 is the next digit of our result.

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

So, 588449 - 20048 = 568401.
