Answer 1

lily has 13 yards of clothes

the total clothes length used by lily is

`=2(6)/(4)+3(1)/(3)+4.5`
`\begin{gathered} =(14)/(4)+(10)/(3)+(45)/(10) \\ =(14)/(4)+(10)/(3)+(9)/(2) \end{gathered}`

so remaining yards is

`=13-((14)/(4)+(10)/(3)+(9)/(2))`
`\begin{gathered} =13-((42+40+54)/(12)) \\ =13-(136)/(12) \end{gathered}`
`=(156-136)/(12)=(20)/(12)=(5)/(3)`
