Question

Elena bought a bag of 75 glass beads. She used 7 beads to make a bracelet. She wants to make necklaces from the rest. Each necklace requires 13 beads.

Write an equation to determine how many necklaces (n) she can make.

Answer 1

13

Step-by-step explanation: 75. 5 .=5-5

Answer 2

68/13=5n

Explanation:

So you have 75 glass beads. Since you already used 7 to make a bracelet you would subtract that amount

75-7= 68

Then you would do 68/13 because each necklace needs that amount

13 can only go into 68 5 times because you cant make a partial amount of a necklace
