Answer:

[tex]12^1/_4[/tex] [tex]inches[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We can make this an equation

[tex]-3 ^1/_{2}+15^3/_4[/tex]

We can make them the same denominator by looking for the GCF which we get as 2

Now we have

[tex]-3 ^2/_{4}+15^3/_4[/tex]

Do the equation and we get

[tex]12 ^1/_4[/tex] [tex]inches[/tex] as our answer
