Answer:
[tex]1\frac{3}{8}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]3\frac{1}{2} -2\frac{1}{8}[/tex]
Subtract the whole numbers and the fractional parts of the mixed numbers separately.
(3-2)+( [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] )
Subtract the numbers
1 + ( [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] )
To add or subtract fractions you need the same denominator
Make the [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] into a [tex]\frac{4}{8}[/tex] by multiplying the numerator and denominator by 4.
1 + ( [tex]\frac{4}{8}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] )
Subtract
Your answer should be:
[tex]1\frac{3}{8}[/tex]
