Full solution

Q. Simplify. Express your answer as a single fraction in simplest form. \newline12−yz2\frac{1}{2} - \frac{yz}{2}
  1. Identify common denominator: Identify the common denominator for the fractions. In this case, both fractions already have the same denominator, which is 22.
  2. Subtract numerators: Since the denominators are the same, subtract the numerators. This gives us (1−yz)/2(1 - yz)/2.
  3. No further simplification: There is no further simplification possible for the numerator, as 11 and yzyz are not like terms. Therefore, the expression is already in its simplest form.
