Question 358521
Use the FOIL Method,
{{{((1/2)x - 1/3)((1/4)x + 1/2)=(1/2)x(1/4)x+(1/2)x(1/2)-(1/3)(1/4)x-(1/3)(1/2)}}}
{{{((1/2)x - 1/3)((1/4)x + 1/2)=(1/8)x^2+(1/4)x-(1/12)x-(1/6)}}}
{{{((1/2)x - 1/3)((1/4)x + 1/2)=(1/8)x^2+(3/12)x-(1/12)x-(1/6)}}}
{{{((1/2)x - 1/3)((1/4)x + 1/2)=highlight((1/8)x^2+(1/6)x-(1/6))}}}
