Thank you!!
you're correct
Yes, you are correct. The correct solution for the given expression is 88 1/4.
To solve the subtraction of mixed numbers, follow these steps:
1. First, subtract the whole numbers: 234 - 233 = 1.
2. Next, subtract the fractions separately. For the fraction 4/4 - 3/4, keep the denominator the same and subtract the numerators: 4 - 3 = 1.
3. Lastly, combine the whole number and fractional parts: 1 + 1/1 = 1 1/1 = 1 1.
Therefore, the final result is 1 1/4 or 88 1/4.
If you obtained a different answer, it's possible that you made a mistake during the calculation. To troubleshoot the error, recheck each step of your calculation and make sure to correctly subtract the whole numbers and fractions separately.
