View full question & answer→$\operatorname{gg}\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)= g \left[ g \left(\frac{1}{2}\right)\right]$
$ = g \left[\frac{1}{2}-2 \div 3\right]$
$ = g \left[\frac{1-4}{2} \div 3\right]$
$= g \left[\frac{-3}{2} \times \frac{1}{3}\right] $
$= g \left[-\frac{1}{2}\right] $
$ =\left[-\frac{1}{2}-2 \div 3\right] $
$ =\left[\frac{-1-4}{2} \div 3\right]$
$=\left[\frac{-5}{2} \times \frac{1}{3}\right] $
$ \operatorname{gg}\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)=-\frac{5}{6}$
