Answer:

3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: 3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all it can be 1 or 1/2 because they don't have a denominator(the bottom number of a fraction) of 8.

when ever you need to add or subtract 2 fractions you will need to make the common denominators,

so turn 1/4 into 2/8 and then do 5/8 - 2/8 = 3/8
