Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

So we multiply 2 by 6, and get 12.

Then we multiply 1 by 3, and get 3.

Next we give both terms new denominators

So now our fractions look like this:

12/18-3/18

Since our denominators match, we can subtract the numerators.

12 − 3 = 9

So the answer is:

9/18

So we reduce it:

9/18divided by 3=3/6

so since it’s equivalent we reduce it again

3/6divided by 3 which equals 1/2

and that’s our final answer 1/2

I hoped that this helps :)
