I find it easier convert 1/4s in decimals so first I would turn 3 1/4 into 3.25 and 1 3/4 into 1.75.
3.25-1.75 is 1.5
Convert back into a decimal and it is 1 1/2
So, Antonio spent an hour and a half more on driving then gardening.

Answer:
1 1/2 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Time spent by Antonio in driving = 3 1/4 = 13/4
Time spent in gardening = 1 3/4 = 7/4
In order to find how much he spend driving than gardening, we can subtract 13/4 and 7/4.
[tex]\frac{13}{4}-\frac{7}{4}[/tex]
Te denominator is same. So, we can directly subtract the numerators.
[tex]\frac{13-7}{4}\\\\=\frac{6}{4}\\\\=\frac{3}{2}=1\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Therefore, Antonio spent 1 1/2 hours more in driving than gardening.
