Answer: 213/40 or 5.325

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find common denominators for 8 1/5 and 2 7/8.

The Lowest Common Denominator for 8 1/5 and 2 7/8 is 40.

8 1/5 = 41/5 = 328/40.

2 7/8 = 23/8 = 115/40.

Now we can subtract.

328/40 - 115/40 = 213/40.

Therefore, the answer is 213/40 or 5 13/40.
