Answer:


1 (3)/(4) + 1 + y = 4 (1)/(3) \\ (7)/(4) + (1)/(1) + y = (13)/(3) \\ (7)/(4) ( * )/( * ) (3)/(3) + (1)/(1) ( * )/( * ) (12)/(12) + y = (13)/(3) ( * )/( * ) (4)/(4) \\ (21)/(12) + (12)/(12) + y = (52)/(12) \\ (33)/(12) + y = (52)/(12) \\ y = (52)/(12) - (33)/(12) \\ y = (19)/(12) \\ \: \: \: \: = 1 (7)/(12)
