Solution

Subtraction is opposite of addition. So, to subtract an integer $a$ from another integer $b$ we add the additive inverse of $a$ to $b$ .
Taking additive inverse of the second integer,
Additive inverse of $183$ is $- 183$ ,
So
$- 125 - (183)$
$= - 125 - 183 = - (125 + 183) = - 308$
Hence, the final answer is $- 308$
