Answer: 5/8 - 1/2 in fraction form is 1/8.
Step-by-step explanation: To subtract fractions, you need to have a common denominator.
The common denominator for 8 and 2 is 8, so you need to convert 1/2 into an equivalent fraction with a denominator of 8.
To do this, you multiply the numerator and denominator of 1/2 by 4 (since 4 times 2 is 8):
1/2 * 4/4 = 4/8
Now that both fractions have the same denominator, you can subtract them:
5/8 - 4/8 = 1/8
