Answer:

3/4

Explanation:

First, make the denominator of 1/2 equal to the denominator of 11/12. We know 2x6=12. So we must multiply the numerator of 1/2 (1) by 6. We would get the answer 6/12. We must now subtract the numerators. 11-6=5. That leaves us with 5/12+2/6. Now we must do the same to 2/6. 2x6=12. Then, 2x2=4. That leaves us with 5/12+4/12=9/12. Now to simplify, we must find a common divider. We know 9 can be divided by 3, and so can 12. 9/3=3. 12/3=4. Final answer is 3/4.
