Hope you could get an idea from here.
Doubt clarification- use comment section.
-2 (x-2y=-5)
-2x+4y=10
2x+3y=4
0+7y=14
/7. /7
y=2
2x+3 (2)=4
2x+6=4
-6. -6
2x=-2
/2. /2
x=-1
Simply add up all.
4 1/2 + 6 2/3 + 9 1/4
(4 + 6 + 9) + 1/2 + 2/3 + 1/4
19 6/12 + 8/12 + 3/12 = (6+8+3)/12 = 17/12
19 17/12
19 1 5/12
19 + 1 5/12
= 20 5/12
20 5/12 yards was purchased.
