Minus number in Deduction for Exemption worksheet Tax?

Question

my adjusted gross income (married filing jointly) is more than 112,175. so I need to do the calculation from the worksheet in page 34. when I subtract line 4 from line 3 the number is negative hence the rest of the calculation is negative . doesn't make sense. e.g line 6 - increase it to the next whole number ? it is negative what is the next whole number ? so what should I put as my deduction for exemption ?

Answer 1

If it's a negative amount you don't need to use the worksheet.
Go back and re-read line 1.
