2 3/4= 11/4 which can be multiplied by 4 to be 44/16. 44-22 equals 22, therefore the answer is 22/16, which can be simplified to 11/8 or 1 3/8.

Hey there, 2 3/4=11/4 and 1 5/16=21/16, 11*16-21*4/4*16=176-84/64=92/64, 92/64 simplified is 23/16, 23/16 as a mixed number is 1 7/16. Therefore, 2 3/4 minus 1 5/16 = 1 7/16
