1 - 1/4 = 3/4
Not a choice, so I suspect a typo or a garbled question.

Before school, Mrs. Friedmon had 1 and 7/8 of walnut cake. After school, she had 1/4 of the cake left. So, to find out the difference between the two you would subtract.
1 7/8-1/4
Change the denominator of 1/4 to 8.
1 7/8-2/8= 1 5/8.
ANSWER: 1 5/8
I hope this helped.
