1. -1/3 - (-1/2) = .16666666666666

2. -8

Hope it helps, if you need it in fractions, you can always convert it :)

1)


(-1)/(3) - (-1)/(2)


= (-1)/(3) + (1)/(2)


=((2)/(2)) (-1)/(3) + ((3)/(3))(1)/(2)


= (-2)/(6) + (3)/(6)


= (1)/(6)

2)


-9(1)/(3) - (-1(1)/(3))


=-9(1)/(3) + 1(1)/(3)


=-(3(9)+1)/(3) + (3(1) + 1)/(3)


=(-28)/(3) + (4)/(3)


=(-24)/(3)

= -8
