We are given with two numerics in a mixed fraction form and is asked for the difference between the two. in this case, we subtract first the whole numbers: 25-22 equal to 3. Then convert the two fractions to similar fractions. the difference is 1/8. Hence the answer is 3 1/8

The only number less than 8 that can equal 12 would be 6, 36 is the dividend
