You need a common denominator in order to subtract, so you need to find equivalent fractions that have common denominators. It is easy in this case because 8 is a multiple of 4, so it is only necessary to find an equivalent fraction for 3/4. Using a factor of 2, 3/4=6/8 So, the question now becomes 7/8-6/8. Subtract the numerators and use the same denominator, you get 1/8 as an answer.
