Some example sentences are:
1. He is working two jobs to make ends meet.
2. I don't know how the large family is able to make ends meet with so many mouths to feed.
3. If I lose my job, I don't know how I will make ends meet.
I hope these examples help! Let me know if you would like more suggestions.

Olá Tiago!
So this expression is used to describe someone who is having difficulty in paying everything (rent, bills, etc.). He/she is poor, and he/she is just trying to "get by."
Examples:
-Since Jack only had thee dollars in his bank account, he was struggling to make ends meet.
-The father had difficulty in making ends meet ever since he was laid off from his job.
-Jim and Pam were able to make ends meet for the month.
Hope this helps! Tem um bom dia!
