To write 3/4 - 1/28 as a fraction, we need to find a common denominator and then subtract the fractions.
The common denominator between 4 and 28 is 28, so we can rewrite the fractions with this denominator:
3/4 = (3*7)/(4*7) = 21/28
1/28 = (1*1)/(28*1) = 1/28
Now we can subtract the fractions:
21/28 - 1/28 = (21-1)/28 = 20/28
So, 3/4 - 1/28 can be written as the fraction 20/28.

thats not correct..
Apologies for the mistake. Let's reevaluate the calculation:
To subtract fractions, we need to have a common denominator. The least common multiple of 4 and 28 is 28.
Let's rewrite the fractions using the common denominator:
3/4 = (3*7)/(4*7) = 21/28
1/28 = 1/28
Now that we have a common denominator, we can subtract:
21/28 - 1/28 = (21 - 1)/28 = 20/28
However, we can simplify the fraction by dividing the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 4:
20/28 = (20/4)/(28/4) = 5/7
Therefore, the correct answer is 5/7.
