How do I remove Mavericks from my startup disk so I can download Yosemite?

I want to update my computer to the latest operating system, but it says I do not have enough space. I tells me to delete what is on my startup disk, Mavericks, and then try download it. I do not know how. HELP!

MacBook Air, OS X Mavericks (10.9.3)

It does not say 'delete Mavericks'! It means you should make some space on your Hard drive. Just move your movie, photos, music, etc to an external drive or delete what you don't need anymore.
