Answer:

the answer is 3.5

Explanation:

7 1/4 - 3 3/4 = 7/2= 3 1/2= 3.5 For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of both denominators - LCM(4, 4) = 4. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators.hope this helps if not let me know have a good day
