Answer

4992.5

5000 − 4.5 − 3

Step 1 — Subtract

5000 − 4.5 − 3

  5000.0
−    4.5
────────
  4995.5

Subtract column by column (with borrowing):

Tenths: 0 < 5 → borrow → 10 − 5 = 5

Ones: -1 < 4 → borrow → 9 − 4 = 5

Tens: -1 < 0 → borrow → 9 − 0 = 9

Hundreds: -1 < 0 → borrow → 9 − 0 = 9

Thousands: 5 − 1 (borrow) − 0 = 4

5000 − 4.5 = 4995.5

Step 2 — Subtract

  4995.5
−    3.0
────────
  4992.5

Subtract each column:

Tenths: 5 − 0 = 5

Ones: 5 − 3 = 2

Tens: 9 − 0 = 9

Hundreds: 9 − 0 = 9

Thousands: 4 − 0 = 4

4995.5 − 3 = 4992.5

= 4992.5 (= 99852 as a fraction)
