In adding and subtracting fractions with unlike denominators, you have to get a least common denominator which is exactly like the least common multiple it just so happens to be in the denominator.
Subtract the integers and subtract the fractions. When the fraction to be subtracted is bigger than the first fraction, change the mixed numbers to improper fractions first then do the subtraction.
