Answer:

  check your math

Step-by-step explanation:

The first subtraction was correct:

  36 -7 3/4 = 28 1/4

The second subtraction needs to be revisited.

  28 1/4 -6 2/4 = 27 5/4 -6 2/4 = 21 3/4

__

You can do what you did, but you need to pay attention to the signs.

  28 1/4 -6 2/4 = (28 -6) +(1/4 -2/4) = 22 - 1/4 = 21 3/4

The result of subtracting 2/4 from 1/4 is -1/4, not +1/4.
