First you make the fractions have a common denominator. In this case it would be 6.

Then you have 8 3/6 - 2 4/6.

Because the number you are subtracting is greater than what you are subtracting from, you can turn the fraction into an improper fraction.

8 3/6 = 7 9/6

9/6 - 4/6 = 5/6

Then subtract the whole numbers.

7-2 = 5

Answer: 5 5/6
