Subtracting Mixed Numbers

Directions: Using the digits 1 to 9, at most one time each, place a digit in each box to create three different mixed numbers that will make the equation true. You may reuse the same numbers for each of the three mixed numbers.

Hint

How can I use the first answer I find to find additional answers?

Answer

All answers should be equivalent to 2 3/4.  So, three potential answers include 2 3/4, 2 6/8, and 1 7/4
