To solve this problem, we need to calculate 60% of 1 and 25% of 1, and then subtract both results from 1/2. Let's do the calculations.
60% of 1 is (60/100) * 1 = 0.6
25% of 1 is (25/100) * 1 = 0.25
Now, subtract both results from 1/2:
1/2 - 0.6 - 0.25 = 1/2 - 0.85
To subtract fractions, we need to find a common denominator. The common denominator between 2 and 100 is 200, so let's convert 1/2 to have a denominator of 200:
1/2 = (1/2) * (100/100) = 100/200
Now, we can subtract:
100/200 - 0.85 = (100 - 170)/200 = -70/200
Simplifying this fraction, we get:
-70/200 = -7/20
Therefore, the answer is -7/20.

The expression is -80% + 50/54 - 0.25.
To solve this, we need to convert -80% to a decimal, find the value of 50/54, and then subtract 0.25.
-80% can be written as -0.8 (since 80% is equal to 0.8 in decimal form).
To find the value of 50/54, we divide 50 by 54:
50/54 ≈ 0.9259
Now, we can subtract 0.25 from the previous result:
0.9259 - 0.25 = 0.6759
Therefore, the answer is approximately 0.6759.
