Answer:

27/10

Explanation:

You want to get a common denominator in order to add them together.

First:

Convert the whole numbers to fractions, 4 = 8/2

4 1/2 = 9/2

And 1 = 10/10

1 8/10 = 18/10

Then find the common denominator:

The least common multiple of 2 and 10 is 10. So:

convert 9/2 to a denominator of 10 : 9*5 / 2*5 = 45/10

Subtract:

45/10 - 18/10 = 27/10
