Problem

Answer

29989.5

30000 − 5.5 − 5

Step 1 — Subtract

30000 − 5.5 − 5

  30000.0
−     5.5
─────────
  29994.5

Subtract column by column (with borrowing):

Tenths: 0 < 5 → borrow → 10 − 5 = 5

Ones: -1 < 5 → borrow → 9 − 5 = 4

Tens: -1 < 0 → borrow → 9 − 0 = 9

Hundreds: -1 < 0 → borrow → 9 − 0 = 9

Thousands: -1 < 0 → borrow → 9 − 0 = 9

10⁴: 3 − 1 (borrow) − 0 = 2

30000 − 5.5 = 29994.5

Step 2 — Subtract

  29994.5
−     5.0
─────────
  29989.5

Subtract column by column (with borrowing):

Tenths: 5 − 0 = 5

Ones: 4 < 5 → borrow → 14 − 5 = 9

Tens: 9 − 1 (borrow) − 0 = 8

Hundreds: 9 − 0 = 9

Thousands: 9 − 0 = 9

10⁴: 2 − 0 = 2

29994.5 − 5 = 29989.5

= 29989.5 (= 599792 as a fraction)
