Answer:

3/32

Explanation:

1. 3/8 (3/4 + 5/6) - 1/2

2. 3/8 x 19/12 - 1/2

3. 19/32 - 1/2

4. 3/32

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

First, you do the operation order. In this equation, parentheses goes first. You add the fractions to get 19/12.

Then, we multiply the sum from the parentheses and 3/8, 19/32.

Finally, we subtract the product we got from the parentheses and 3/8 with 1/2, each lead us to our final answer 3/32.

~~~Hope this helps~~~
