Problem 1:


```
7262
- 6564
------
```
Solution:
1. Subtract the units place: \(2 - 4\). Since 2 is less than 4, borrow 1 from the tens place (6 becomes 5), making the units place \(12 - 4 = 8\).
2. Subtract the tens place: \(5 - 6\). Since 5 is less than 6, borrow 1 from the hundreds place (2 becomes 1), making the tens place \(15 - 6 = 9\).
3. Subtract the hundreds place: \(1 - 5\). Since 1 is less than 5, borrow 1 from the thousands place (7 becomes 6), making the hundreds place \(11 - 5 = 6\).
4. Subtract the thousands place: \(6 - 6 = 0\).

Answer:
