Question

Subtract 10 - 2 1/4
​

Answer 1

Answer: 7 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Keep in mind that 2 1/4 = 2 + 1/4

10 - 2 = 8

8 - 1/4 = 7 3/4

Therefore your answer is 7 3/4

Answer 2

7 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Take 1 away from 10 and write 10 as 9 + 1.

1 = 4/4, so 10 = 9 + 4/4 or simply 9 4/4.

Now subtract 2 1/4 from 9 4/4.

9 4/4 - 2 1/4

9 4/4

- 2 1/4
