Why is this wrong when I solve for finding the inverse of the matrix by using gauss jordan elimination?

Question

$[(2,3),(4,5)]|[(1,0),(0,1)]$

$R_2-2R_1->[(2,3),(0,-1)]|[(1,0),(-2,1)]$

$R_1-R_2->[(2,2),(0,-1)]|[(3,-1),(-2,1)]$

$1/2R_1->[(1,1),(0,-1)]|[(3/2,-1/2),(-2,1)]$

$R_1+R_2->[(1,0),(0,-1)]|[(-1/2,1/2),(-2,1)]$

$-R_2->[(1,0),(0,1)]|[(-1/2,1/2),(2,-1)]$

$[(2,3),(4,5)]|[(1,0),(0,1)]$

$R_2-2R_1->[(2,3),(0,-1)]|[(1,0),(-2,1)]$

$R_1-R_2->[(2,\color(red)4),(0,-1)]|[(3,-1),(-2,1)]$

$1/2R_1->[(1,\color(red)2),(0,-1)]|[(3/2,-1/2),(-2,1)]$

$R_1+\color(red)2R_2->[(1,0),(0,-1)]|[(-5/2,3/2),(-2,1)]$

$-R_2->[(1,0),(0,1)]|[(-5/2,3/2),(2,-1)]$
