The answer is 4/5, A. First, we should convert everything into an improper fraction. This gives us 36/5 - 32/5. Next, we have to subtract and get an answer of 4/5. Usually, we would have to convert this number back into a mixed number, but 4/5 is less than 1 and is therefore the answer.

Hope this helps!
