Milo had a piece of wrapping paper that was 7 1/2   feet long. He used 3 1/4  feet of the paper to wrap a present. He used a 1 1/2   inch bow to decorate the present.

Sorry, I had to restart my computer.

Start with 7 1/2 feet.
Subtract 3 1/4 feet.
The bow is not part of the paper, so we do not subtract its width.
