Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Find the common denominator

Common denominator is 6

Trey: 2[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] · [tex]\frac{2}{2}[/tex] = 2 [tex]\frac{4}{6}[/tex]

Thomas: [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

Mario: 1 [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] · [tex]\frac{3}{3}[/tex] = 1 [tex]\frac{3}{6}[/tex]

Add all together = 5 yards

Then subtract = 6 - 5 = 1 yard left
