$(7 + \frac{3}{8}) - (2 + \frac{1}{2}) = \frac{59}{8} - \frac{5}{2} = \frac{59}{8} - \frac{20}{8} = \frac{39}{8} = 4 + \frac{7}{8}$

#

idk why you made the denominator 16 in the third step

118-40 does not equal 70

#

thats the wrong step

#

but yeah as @fleet edge said you could have put 8 in both denominators
