Answer:
The correct answer there is the first option
Answer: 1 3/4
Step-by-step explanation: First, convert 4 1/2 and 2 3/4 to have like denominators.
4 1/2 = 4 2/4 because 1 x 2 = 2 and 2 x 2 = 4 = 2/4
2 3/4 stays the same.
Now, subtract 4 2/4 - 2 3/4 (4 x 4 = 16 + 2 = 18) and (2 x 4 = 8 + 3 = 11)
18/4 - 11/4 = 7/4 or 1 3/4
I think -3 because 3(2) = 6 (3-6= -3)
