1. The problem asks us to find the difference between the two numbers 5,921 and 3,088. 2. To find the difference, subtract the smaller number from the larger number: $$5921 - 3088$$ 3. Perform the subtraction step-by-step: $$5921 - 3000 = 2921$$ $$2921 - 80 = 2841$$ $$2841 - 8 = 2833$$ 4. Therefore, the difference between 5,921 and 3,088 is: $$\boxed{2833}$$
