Answer

To solve the problem step by step, we need to find a number that must be subtracted from 925,564 to make it equal to the sum of 234,251 and 352,421.

### Step 1: Calculate the sum of 234,251 and 352,421.
We start by adding the two numbers together.

\[ 234,251 + 352,421 \]

Let's add them:

- Start from the rightmost digit:
- 1 + 1 = 2
- 5 + 2 = 7
- 4 + 4 = 8
- 2 + 2 = 4
- 3 + 5 = 8
- 2 + 3 = 5

So, the sum is:

\[ 586,672 \]

### Step 2: Set up the equation.
According to the problem, we need to find a number \( x \) such that:

\[ 925,564 - x = 586,672 \]

### Step 3: Rearrange the equation to solve for \( x \).
To find \( x \), we can rearrange the equation:

\[ x = 925,564 - 586,672 \]

### Step 4: Perform the subtraction.
Now we will subtract 586,672 from 925,564:

\[ 925,564 - 586,672 \]

Let's perform the subtraction step by step:

- Start from the rightmost digit:
- 4 - 2 = 2
- 6 - 7 (we need to borrow) = 16 - 7 = 9 (borrow 1 from the next column)
- 5 - 6 (after borrowing, it becomes 4) = 14 - 6 = 8
- 2 - 8 (after borrowing, it becomes 1) = 12 - 8 = 4
- 8 - 5 = 3
- 9 - 0 = 9

So, the result of the subtraction is:

\[ 338,892 \]

### Conclusion:
The number that must be subtracted from 925,564 to make it equal to the sum of 234,251 and 352,421 is:

\[ \boxed{338,892} \]
