Answer:

2/3 - 1/2 = 1/6

Explanation:

Find the lcm of the denominator (3 and 2) which is 6. Now with the lcm of those 2 denominator you can find the answer by simply multiplying both the denominator until they get to 6. So you multiply 3 by 2 and 2 by 3, and both denominator should both be 6 meaning you have to do the same thing to the numerator, you have to multiply them by the same number you multiplied in the denominator so 2/3 becomes 4/6 and 1/2 becomes 3/6. The question should now be 4/6 - 3/6, you can now just minus the numerator, 4/6 - 3/6 = 1/6.
