Answer:

4 and 5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

First change the 2 and 3/8 into a single fraction.

This will result in 19/8.

Change 7 into a fraction. This gives 7/1.

Then subtract:

[tex]\frac{7}{1} -\frac{19}{8}[/tex]

LCM is 8

[tex]\frac{56}{8} -\frac{19}{8\\}[/tex]

This results into 37/8 which can be written as a mixed fraction as 4 and 5/8
