Ignore the whole numbers for the moment. Now, the fractions 7/8 & 1/3 need to be converted to the same denominator to facilitate subtraction.... 7/8 = 21/24, and 1/3 = 8/24. 21-8=13. So - you now have the fraction 13/24.... Finally subtract the whole numbers from the start (3-1=2) so - your answer is 213/24
