Answer:
2(19)/(36)

Explanation:

You subtract the woman's height from her son:

  • Woman's height:
    60(5)/(18) =((60*18)+5)/(18) =(1085)/(18)
  • Son's height:
    57(3)/(4) =((57*4)+3)/(4) =(231)/(4)


60(5)/(18) -57(3)/(4) =(1085)/(18) -(231)/(4) =(1085*2)/(18*2) -(231*9)/(4*9) =(2170-2079)/(36) =(91)/(36) =2(19)/(36)
