64% make it to decimal for twice to the left
0.64 and subtract so your answer is 3.86

Answer 2

She is charging 7.38 per necklace. All you have to do is make the percentage a decimal (move it twice to the left so it becomes .64) and they multiply it by how much it costs her to make (4.5). Your equation should be (4.5*.64) and that should be equal to 7.38.
