Answer: 1/2 buckets

Step-by-step explanation:

Sarah picked 4¹/₄ buckets of grapes and Nathan picked 3³/₄ buckets.

To find out how much Sarah picked more than Nathan, simply subtract Nathan's buckets from Sarah's.

First convert the fractions to improper fractions:

4¹/₄  = 17/4

3³/₄ = 15/4

As the have the same denominator, you can directly subtract them:

= 17/4 - 15/4

= 2/4

= 1/2 buckets
