– 5th Grade Fractions

964 views

Daughter is in 5th grade and I have no idea how to solve this math problem!

5 3/4 – 6 3/4

Obv you cannot subtract 5 from 6. You also can’t borrow the 3 from the 5 and make it a new mixed number. What do you borrow from? I’ve googled and seriously cannot figure this out.
