Answer:

3 1/2

Explanation:

Rewriting our equation with parts separated

=6+1/4−2−3/4=6+1/4−2−3/4

Solving the whole number parts

6−2=4/6−2=4

Solving the fraction parts

1/4−3/4=−2/4 1/4−3/4=−2/4

Reducing the fraction part, 2/4,

−2/4=−1/2−2/4=−1/2

Combining the whole and fraction parts

4−1/2=3 1/2
