Answer:1 3/4 cups

Step-by-step explanation: You would first change the denominators to be the same, so you would change 3 1/2 to 3 2/4. After that, you can subtract the two fractions. 3 2/4 minus 1 3/4 equals 1 3/4.

Answer:

1 3/4

Step-by-step explanation: you would add 1/4 to the 1 3/4 sam already put in. at that point your left with 2 cups and to get to 3 1/2 from 2 you need 1 1/2 cups
