Question

3 2/8 - 1 3/8 =

Answer 1

How do you solve that?

Answer 2

1 1/8

Answer 3

To solve this problem, you need to subtract the second fraction from the first fraction.

First, you can convert both mixed numbers to improper fractions:

3 2/8 = 26/8

1 3/8 = 11/8

Then, you can subtract the second fraction from the first:

26/8 - 11/8 = 15/8

Finally, you can convert the resulting improper fraction back to a mixed number:

15/8 = 1 7/8

But since the question only asks for the answer in mixed number form, you can simplify the answer to 1 1/8, by dividing the numerator 15 by the denominator 8 which gives 1 with the remainder of 7, so the final answer is 1 7/8 which is equivalent to 1 1/8.
