Answer:

4 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

subtracting a negative number is the same thing as adding the positive interger of that respected number

for example, 8 - (-3) is the same as 8 + 3

so to apply, 3 2/3 - (-1 1/12) is the same as

3 2/3 + 1 1/12

then, you can convert the respected mixed fractions so you can add them by common denominators

2/3 is the same as 8/12*

3 8/12 + 1 1/12

4 9/12

then this fraction can be simplified

4 3/4
