To find out how much of the cake was left, we need to subtract the amount eaten from the total amount of the cake.

The amount eaten by Aliyah's siblings is 1/4 of the cake.
The amount eaten by Aliyah's friends is 2/3 of the cake.

The total amount eaten is 1/4 + 2/3.

To add these fractions, we need to find a common denominator. The common denominator for 4 and 3 is 12.

1/4 is the same as 3/12.
2/3 is the same as 8/12.

So the total amount eaten is 3/12 + 8/12, which equals 11/12.

To find out how much of the cake was left, we subtract the total amount eaten from 1 (the whole cake).

1 - 11/12 = 12/12 - 11/12 = 1/12.

So, 1/12 of the cake was left.
