See below.

Explanation:

One fourth can be written mathematically as the fraction $\frac{1}{4}$ $1/4$ . One and three eights can be written as $1 \frac{3}{8}$ $1 3/8$ . Whenever you see "difference" in this level of mathematics, it usually means subtraction. So $1 \frac{3}{8} - \frac{1}{4}$ $1 3/8- 1/4$ is what we are trying to find. $\frac{1}{4}$ $1/4$ can also be rewritten as $\frac{2}{8}$ $2/8$ so that $8$ $8$ is the common denominator. $1 \frac{3}{8} - \frac{2}{8} = 1 \frac{1}{8}$ $1 3/8 - 2/8 = color(blue)(1 1/8$

I hope that helps!
