The image shows the following mathematical expression:

\[
\frac{1}{4} - \frac{1}{6}
\]

To solve this, we need to find a common denominator for the fractions.

1. The least common denominator (LCD) of 4 and 6 is 12.
   
2. Convert both fractions to have this common denominator:
   - \( \frac{1}{4} = \frac{3}{12} \)
   - \( \frac{1}{6} = \frac{2}{12} \)

3. Now, subtract the fractions:
   \[
   \frac{3}{12} - \frac{2}{12} = \frac{1}{12}
   \]

Therefore, the solution to \( \frac{1}{4} - \frac{1}{6} \) is:

\[
\frac{1}{12}
\]
