Answer:

5 7/20

Step-by-step explanation:

basically, you are going to want to turn these into improper fractions

7 3/4 = 28/4 + 3/4

        = 31/4  (no further simplification)

2 2/5 = 10/5 + 2/5

         = 12/5

now get common denominator to subtract

31/4 - 12/5

155/20 - 48/20 = 107/20

if you want this back into mixed fraction then convert

107/20 = 5 7/20
