The total amount of yarn Mary has is [tex]\frac{8}{9}[/tex].
Step-by-step explanation:
Mary has;
Red yarn = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
White yarn = [tex]\frac{2}{9}[/tex]
Blue yarn = [tex]\frac{2}{6}[/tex]
Total yarn = Red + White + Blue
Total yarn = [tex]\frac{1}{3}+\frac{2}{9}+\frac{2}{6}\\[/tex]
Taking LCM = 18
Total yarn = [tex]\frac{6+4+6}{18}[/tex]
Total yarn = [tex]\frac{16}{18}=\frac{8}{9}[/tex]
The total amount of yarn Mary has is [tex]\frac{8}{9}[/tex].
