Answer:

4 9/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions first:

7 1/4--> 29/4, 2 4/5--> 14/5.

Now we look for the common denominator, which is 20. So 29/4=145/20 and 14/5=56/20.

We subtract them:

145/20-56/20=89/20.

Convert it to a mixed fraction to get 4 9/20.
