Answer:

2 1/2

Explanation:

First, subtract 1/4 from 3/4 to get 2/4 or 1/2

Next, subtract the whole number 3 from 5 to get 2.

Then, add 2 and 2/4 together to get 2 2/4

Finally, since 2/4 isn't in its simplest form, just divide 2/4 by 2 to get 1/2 which, is in its simplest form

Hope you enjoyed o((>ω< ))o
