Explanation :

First, you need to convert the mixed numbers into improper fractions. Then, you make sure the denominators are the same. (For example, in the first problem, you have to change the 3/4 to 6/8 to match the 17/8.) Then, you subtract the two fractions, and then turn the resulting improper fraction to a mixed number!
