How to convert two conflicting objective functions into a single objective function
To turn a maximisation problem into a minimisation one (or vice versa), simply multiply the value by -1.

Hence you want w1 * f1 - w2 * f2, for some appropriate choice of weights w1, w2 (which could indeed both be 1).

Unless there's some other requirement you haven't mentioned, there's no specific need for w1 and w2 to add up to 1: it depends on the relative importance of f1 and f2, which is problem-specific.
