To solve this subtraction of mixed fractions, we need to find a common denominator for both fractions. In this case, the common denominator is 8.

2 3/8 can be expressed as (2 * 8 + 3)/8 = 19/8
1 2/8 can be expressed as (1 * 8 + 2)/8 = 10/8

Now we can subtract these fractions:
19/8 - 10/8 = (19 - 10)/8 = 9/8

Therefore, 2 3/8 - 1 2/8 equals to 9/8 or 1 1/8.
