Answer 2

Answer:
`5(19)/(16)`

Turn 7 3/4 into an Improper Fraction

Multiply 7*4 and get 28. Now add 3 and get 31.

7 3/4 = 31/4

Turn 2 3/16 into an Improper Fraction

Multiply 2*16 and get 32. Now add 3 and get 35.

2 3/16 = 35/16

Your new problem should be: 31/4-35/16

Subtract

`(31)/(4) -(35)/(16)=(89)/(16)`

Turn 89/16 into a Mixed Number

`(89)/(16) =5(19)/(16)`
