Answer 1

To subtract fractions, we need to find a common denominator. In this case, the common denominator is 4.

1/2 = 2/4

- (-3/4) = 3/4

Now, we can subtract the fractions:

2/4 - 3/4 = (2 - 3)/4 = -1/4

The correct answer is B) 1/4

Answer 2

THAT WAS WRONG

Answer 3

Apologies for the error. Let's try again.

1/2 - (-3/4)

We'll start by finding a common denominator, which in this case is 4.

1/2 = 2/4

-3/4 remains the same since the denominator is already 4.

Now, we subtract the fractions:

2/4 - (-3/4) = 2/4 + 3/4 = 5/4

So, the correct answer is D) 5/4.
