What’s the answer to

Question

Subtract a fraction and reduce or lowest terms 7/8 -3/8

Answer 1

this is similar to 7 apples minus 3 apples = 5 apples

only instead of apples you have 1/8ths

7/8 - 3/8 = (7-3)/8 = 5/8

if the denominator is the same, you just combine their numerators and keep that same denominator.
