Recall to always convert the mixed fractions to "improper" fractions first,

$\bf \stackrel{mixed}{9\frac{5}{12}}\implies \cfrac{9\cdot 12+5}{12}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{113}{12}}
\\\\\\
\stackrel{mixed}{3\frac{2}{3}}\implies \cfrac{3\cdot 3+2}{3}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{11}{3}}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{113}{12}-\cfrac{11}{3}\impliedby \textit{clearly our LCD is 12}\implies \cfrac{113-(4)11}{12}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{113-44}{12}\implies \cfrac{69}{12}\implies 5\frac{9}{12}$

If you had 38/12 dollars, how much money would that be in dollars and cents (rounded to the nearest penny)?

$3.17 Just turn the improper fraction into a mixed number which would be 3 1/6. Then, turn THAT into a decimal rounded to the nearest hundredth (pennies) which leads to $3.17.
