Answer:

5 7/16

Explanation:

First off, make all the numbers have the same denominator.

In this case, the best one would be 16.

For 9 3/4, the four goes into 16 four times. So you multiply the 3 by four, and get 12 in the numerator. So it is now 9 12/16.

Next we have 3 1/8. 8 goes into 18 2 times. So you multiply 1 by 2 and get 2 in the numerator. So it is now 3 2/16.

Now, lets add the two together:

3 2/16+9 12/16 =

12 14/16

Now we know the sum of the two numbers.

Lets subtract this from 18 7/16:

18 7/16-12 14/16

=

5 7/16

This is your answer!

Hope this helps! :)
