Explanation:
Your question isn't really clear. Let me help you rephrase it and solve.
Let's say Cesar is creating a schedule to practice his instrument for band. He needs to practice for a total of 10 hours in a week. On Monday he practice for 1 1/2 hours, on Tuesday he practiced for 2 1/4 hours, and on Wednesday he practiced for 1 1/2 hours.
The total hours that Cesar has used in practicing will be:
= 1 1/2 + 2 1/4 + 1 1/2
= 5 1/4
To get the number of hours that Cesar need to practice during the rest of the week in order to have his 10 total hours, we subtract 5 1/4 hours from 10 hours. This will be:
= 10 - 5 1/4
= 4 3/4 hours.
Cesar needs to practice for 4 3/4 hours more.
