Okay, let's tackle this math problem. We're starting with 801812 and subtracting 8072.

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

Step 2: We'll start by subtracting the digit 7 and the borrow 0 from 1 in column 2 and get -6.
We add -6 to 10 and get 4 as the next digit of the result.

Step 3: We'll start by subtracting the digit 0 and the borrow 1 from 8 in column 3 and get 7.
7 is the next digit of our result.

Step 4: We'll start by subtracting the digit 8 and the borrow 0 from 1 in column 4 and get -7.
We add -7 to 10 and get 3 as the next digit of the result.

Step 5: We'll start by subtracting the digit 0 and the borrow 1 from 0 in column 5 and get -1.
We add -1 to 10 and get 9 as the next digit of the result.

Step 6: We'll start by subtracting the digit 0 and the borrow 1 from 8 in column 6 and get 7.
7 is the next digit of our result.

So, 801812 - 8072 = 793740.
