Answer: 1/6

Explanation:

To subtract fractions, you must have a common denominator. To do this, the common multiple of 3 and 2 is 6. So 2/3 is multiplied by 2/2 and 1/2 is multiplied by 3/3. The multiplication is valid since we multiplied by one, it didn't alter the value but rather it put it into an alternate, equivalent form.
