1 3/8.
Step-by-step explanation:
3 1/4 - 1 7/8
First convert to improper fractions:
3 1/4 = (3*4) + 1 / 4 = 13/4.
1 7/8 = (1 * 8) + 7 / 8 = 15/8. So we have:
13/4 - 15/8
The Lowest Common Multiple of 4 and 8 is 8 so we convert 13/4 to eighth's
13 / 4 = 13*2 / 4 * 2 = 26/8
Finally: we have
26/8 - 15/8 = (26 - 15) / 8
= 11 / 8
= 1 3/8 (answer)
