Explanation:

Alright, to add of subtract two fractions, we have to make sure that they have the same denominator. To do this, lets multiply the #7/8# by #2/2# so that they both have the same denominator.

#=15/16-7/8#

#=15/16-7/8*2/2#

#=15/16-14/16#

Now we can just solve

#=(15-14)/16#

#=1/16#
