Answer:

2 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

How we calculate this is make the two fractions denominators the same so we can make them both 6.

for the 3 we times it by 2 and 2 by 3.

so our 2 fractions are now 2 4/6 and 3/6 Now

so if we take away 3 of 4 we get 1 so 2 and 4/6 is now 2 and 1/6

Meaning the 2 1/6 is what she has left so if she gives that all to her brother he gets that and there's your answer.

Hope it helps have a great afternoon:)
