Step 1
The fractions can be added or subtracted by using the following expression.

\frac{a}{b} \pm \frac{c}{d} = \frac{a \times d \pm (c \times d)}{b \times d}

If the denominators are similar for both fraction, then the rule for adding and subtracting the fraction is,

\frac{a}{x} \pm \frac{b}{x} = \frac{a \pm b}{x}

Step 2
From the above rule,

\frac{5}{4} - \frac{3}{4} = \frac{5 - 3}{4}

= \frac{2}{4}

Divide the denominator and the numerator by 2.

\frac{5}{4} - \frac{3}{4} = \frac{\frac{2}{2}}{\frac{4}{2}}

= \frac{1}{2}

= 0.5

Thus, the final answer is 0.5.
