Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

x - 2/2 - x

Hint: | Reduce (-2)/2 to lowest terms. Start by finding the GCD of -2 and 2.

The gcd of -2 and 2 is 2, so (-2)/2 = (2 (-1))/(2×1) = 2/2×-1 = -1:

x + -1 - x

Hint: | Group like terms in x - 1 - x.

Grouping like terms, x - 1 - x = (x - x) - 1:

(x - x) - 1

Hint: | Look for the difference of two identical terms.

x - x = 0:

Answer: -1
