B i hope it helps if not sorry
1) you would need to turn both fractions so they have a common denominator, that would be 2 2/4 and 3/4
2) then subtract : 2 2/4 - 3/4, and you would subtract numerators and the whole number, but you keep the denominator the same. However, you cannot subtract 2 and 3 in this case, so you need to change 2 2/4 to 1 5/4 (they are still equivalent)
3) 1 5/4 - 3/4 = 1 2/4, which simplified version is 1 1/2
Therefore, the answer is 1 and 1/2
Answer: It would equal 1/27.
Step-by-step explanation: Any number raised to a negative exponent, essentially means you reciprocal to get rid of the negative. After that, you do the math for the number in the denominator, without considering the negative sign. You could also do it the other way, do the function first without the negative, 3^3 is 27 and then applying the negative, reciprocal it to 1/27.
