Answer: 15 yards

Explanation:

From the question, we are given the information that Lucia has 18 pieces of ribbon that she uses to decorate presents and that the length of one ribbon is 5/6 of a yard.

Therefore, the number of yards of ribbon that Lucia has will be gotten by multiplying 5/6 by the total pieces of ribbon. This will be:

= 5/6 × 18

= 15 yards
