B = 4/3/4
L = b - 1/3

L = 4/3/4 - 1/3
L = 4/5/12

Let

x------> height of Leon's older brother

y------> height of Leon

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

4\frac{3}{4}\ ft=\frac{4*4+3}{4}= \frac{19}{4}\ ft

we know that

x=\frac{19}{4}\ ft -----> equation A

y=x-\frac{1}{3} -----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

y=\frac{19}{4}-\frac{1}{3}=\frac{53}{12}\ ft

Convert to mixed number

\frac{53}{12}=\frac{48}{12}+\frac{5}{12}=4\frac{5}{12}\ ft

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

4\frac{5}{12}\ ft
