You asked:

Evaluate the expression: \(3\frac{3}{8} - \frac{2\frac{1}{4}}{1\frac{1}{2}}\)

MathBot Answer:

\[3\frac{3}{8} - \frac{2\frac{1}{4}}{1\frac{1}{2}} = \frac{15}{8} = 1.875\]


\[\begin{aligned}3\frac{3}{8} - \frac{2\frac{1}{4}}{1\frac{1}{2}}& = 3\frac{3}{8} - 2\frac{1}{4} \cdot \frac{1}{1\frac{1}{2}}\\& = 3\frac{3}{8} - \frac{3}{2}\\& = \frac{15}{8}\end{aligned}\]
