Answer:

w = 2 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

5 1/8 - 2 3/8

since 1 can't be subtracted from 3, you take it from the whole number

you then add one whole to the numerator (since it is over 8, you add 8)

4 9/8 - 2 3/8

2 6/8

simplify the fraction

2 3/4

Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{D.\ w=-2\dfrac{3}{4}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]w+2\dfrac{3}{8}=5\dfrac{1}{8}\qquad\text{subtract}\ 2\dfrac{3}{8}\ \text{from both sides}\\\\w+2\dfrac{3}{8}-2\dfrac{3}{8}=5\dfrac{1}{8}-2\dfrac{3}{8}\\\\w=4\dfrac{8+1}{8}-2\dfrac{3}{8}\\\\w=4\dfrac{9}{8}-2\dfrac{3}{8}\\\\w=2\dfrac{6}{8}\\\\w=2\dfrac{6:2}{8:2}\\\\w=2\dfrac{3}{4}[/tex]
