Answer:
The answer is -1 1/2
Explanation:
This problem doesn't have that much steps.
What you do is this.
Step 1: You have 2 7/8 and 4 3/8 now turn it into a improper faction it will look like this 23/8 -35/8
Step 2: Now minus 23/8 and 35/8 23-35= -12 and the 8's stay the same now it will look like this -12/8
Step 3: Now see how many times 8 can go into -12 so -8 times 1= -8 now get from -8 to -12 that equals 4 so it will look like this -1 4/8 that can be simplify by 4 because 4x1=4 And 4x2=8 Now your answer is -1 /12
