Answer 1

The total amount of yarn Mary has is $\frac{8}{9}$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mary has;

Red yarn = $\frac{1}{3}$

White yarn = $\frac{2}{9}$

Blue yarn = $\frac{2}{6}$

Total yarn = Red + White + Blue

Total yarn = $\frac{1}{3}+\frac{2}{9}+\frac{2}{6}$

Taking LCM = 18

Total yarn = $\frac{6+4+6}{18}$

Total yarn = $\frac{16}{18}=\frac{8}{9}$

The total amount of yarn Mary has is $\frac{8}{9}$.
