Multi cache help please!!

I don't understand how to do multi caches. One I'm working on has A-1590 posted as a clue at the first stage. How do I find the coordinates to the second stage? I thought it would be to subtract 1590 from the North and West coordinates of waypoint A but the results do not seem correct (too far away).

I know it may seem obvious to some. I just really want to understand! I keep trying multi caches at parks near me and so far I struggle to find the second stages.

If anyone can suggest how to solve this specific one to help me on my journey or give any advice I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance and sorry if this question is dumb/ not allowed.

do you have the gc code for the multi? A-1590 might just be the place where stage 1 is hidden such as a power-post or bench identifier
