= (1 / 2) - (1 / 3)
= (3 / 6) - (2 / 6)
= 1 / 6

Multiply the fractions to get a common denominator. To do this use the denominator of the other fraction.
=(1/2) * (3/3) - (1/3) * (2/2)
=(3/6) - (2/6)
=(1/6)

(1/2) - (1/3)
You need to find a common denominator:
common denominator: 2*3 = 6
Rewrite the equation w/ new denominator:
(3/6) - (2/6) = (3-2)/6 = (1/6)
(Notice how the numerator was multiplied by the same thing as the denominator was; for example, 2*3 = 6.. then for the numerator we multiplied by 3 as well: 1*3 = 3.)

you need to have a common denominator before you can subtract them,here's the answer..
1/2 - 1/3=3/6 - 2/6= 1/6
you just basically need to get the least common factor of the denominators..
