We can solve this together! We're beginning with 45131 and removing 23352 from it.

Step 1: We'll start by subtracting the digit 2 and the borrow 0 from 1 in column 1 and get -1.
We add -1 to 10 and get 9 as the first digit of the result.

Step 2: We'll start by subtracting the digit 5 and the borrow 1 from 3 in column 2 and get -3.
We add -3 to 10 and get 7 as the next digit of the result.

Step 3: We'll start by subtracting the digit 3 and the borrow 1 from 1 in column 3 and get -3.
We add -3 to 10 and get 7 as the next digit of the result.

Step 4: We'll start by subtracting the digit 3 and the borrow 1 from 5 in column 4 and get 1.
1 is the next digit of our result.

Step 5: We'll start by subtracting the digit 2 and the borrow 0 from 4 in column 5 and get 2.
2 is the next digit of our result.

So, 45131 - 23352 = 21779.
