Let's get this math done. We have 55656 and 45716, and we're going to subtract the second number from the first.

Step 1: We'll start by subtracting the digit 6 and the borrow 0 from 6 in column 1 and get 0.
0 is the first digit of our result.

Step 2: We'll start by subtracting the digit 1 and the borrow 0 from 5 in column 2 and get 4.
4 is the next digit of our result.

Step 3: We'll start by subtracting the digit 7 and the borrow 0 from 6 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 4 and the borrow 1 from 5 in column 5 and get 0.
0 is the next digit of our result.

So, 55656 - 45716 = 9940.
