I believe your answer is:  

$a-3b+4$

Here’s why:

⸻⸻⸻⸻

$\boxed{\text{Simplifying the Equation...}}\\\\\frac{1}{2}(2a-6b+8)\\----------------\\\rightarrow\frac{1}{2}* 2a = a\\\\ \rightarrow\frac{1}{2}*-6b = -3b\\\\\rightarrow\frac{1}{2}*8 = 4\\\\\text{\underline{Therefore:}}\\\\\frac{1}{2}(2a-6b+8)\rightarrow \boxed{a-3b+4}$
