Answer:

1 3/4 or 1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

An easy way to do this is to convert to decimals

1/4 = 0.25

2/4 = 0.5

3/4 = 0.75

Now, for the numbers for this problem.

2 3/4 would be equal to 2.75

3 1/2 would be equal to 3.5

Add those two numbers together and you get 6.25

Subtract that from 8 and you get 1.75 or 1 3/4
