Answer:

The answer would be 1/2. Well, in a decimal it would be 0.5. Simple math.

Explanation:

= 1/2

Hope this helps!

Answer:


\large\boxed{(1)/(2)}

Explanation:

We know:

(-)(-) = (+)

(+)(-) = (-)(+) = (-)

(+)(+) = (+)


(3)/(8)-\left(-(1)/(8)\right)=(3)/(8)+(1)/(8)=(3+1)/(8)=(4)/(8)=(4:4)/(8:4)=(1)/(2)
