Answer:

2 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to subtract two fractions with unlike denominators, you have to bring them to THE SAME denominator. You can do that by multiplying both the numerator and denominator of 3/4 by 2 (so it can have a denominator of 8) to get 6/8. Then, simply add 1 3/8 and 6/8 by combining the numerators and keeping the denominators the same. You should get 1 9/8 which is, as a mixed number, 2 1/8
