Answer: -4/6 or -2/3
Explanation:
First, you find a common denominator among the fractions, which would be 6.
Convert -1/2 to have 6 as its denominator.
-1/2* 3/3 = -3/6
And then subtract them.
-3/6 - 1/6 = -4/6
-4/6 simplified is -2/3
When you subtract a positive number from a negative number, you are adding their absolute values.
