    3 1/4 - 1 7/8

    First, subtract the whole numbers (3 - 1 = 2):

    = 2 1/4 - 7/8

    Convert 1/4 to 2/8:

    = 2 2/8 - 7/8

    Borrow 1=8/8 from the 2:

    = 1 10/8 - 7/8

    Subtract 7/8 from 10/8:

    = 1 3/8

    The answer is 1 3/8

    Alternatively, use improper fractions:

    3 1/4 = 13/4 = 26/8

    1 7/8 = 15/8

    26/8 - 15/8 = 11/8 = 1 3/8
