1x_{1}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}\times 10}{\left(\frac{1}{2}+1-\frac{1}{2}\right)\times 2}
Divide \frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}+1-\frac{1}{2}} by \frac{2}{10} by multiplying \frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}+1-\frac{1}{2}} by the reciprocal of \frac{2}{10}.
1x_{1}=\frac{\frac{1}{2}\times 5}{\frac{1}{2}+1-\frac{1}{2}}
Cancel out 2 in both numerator and denominator.
1x_{1}=\frac{\frac{5}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}+1-\frac{1}{2}}
Multiply \frac{1}{2} and 5 to get \frac{5}{2}.
1x_{1}=\frac{\frac{5}{2}}{\frac{1}{2}+\frac{2}{2}-\frac{1}{2}}
Convert 1 to fraction \frac{2}{2}.
1x_{1}=\frac{\frac{5}{2}}{\frac{1+2}{2}-\frac{1}{2}}
Since \frac{1}{2} and \frac{2}{2} have the same denominator, add them by adding their numerators.
1x_{1}=\frac{\frac{5}{2}}{\frac{3}{2}-\frac{1}{2}}
Add 1 and 2 to get 3.
1x_{1}=\frac{\frac{5}{2}}{\frac{3-1}{2}}
Since \frac{3}{2} and \frac{1}{2} have the same denominator, subtract them by subtracting their numerators.
1x_{1}=\frac{\frac{5}{2}}{\frac{2}{2}}
Subtract 1 from 3 to get 2.
1x_{1}=\frac{\frac{5}{2}}{1}
Divide 2 by 2 to get 1.
1x_{1}=\frac{5}{2}
Anything divided by one gives itself.
