To find this answer, you need to make 1 3/4 into an improper fraction. This can be done by multiplying the whole number (1) by the denominator (4) and adding it to the numerator (3). So, 1 * 4 = 4 and 3 + 4 = 7. Now your problem says 12/4 - 7/4. Finally, subtract the fractions, keeping in mind the denominators stay the same, but you subtract the numerators. 12/4 - 7/4 = 5/4. 5/4 converted to a mixed fraction is 1 1/4. Thus making 1 1/4 the answer.
i think it is 1/4 because i used my caculator and i got 1.25 so then i simplified it and got 25/100 and then isimplified that and got 1/4. HOPE THIS HELPS!!!
