Question

Ava makes bead necklaces. She has a total of 6,048 beads. Each necklace has 24 beads. Her friend Maria says that the greatest number of necklaces she can make with the beads is 162. Explain why Maria is incorrect and how she can find the correct answer.

Answer 1

she is incorrect because the actual amount of necklaces she can make is 252 and you get that by dividing 6048 with 24

Explanation:

Answer 2

The correct answer would be 252. To find how many necklaces Ava could make you would divide the total beads (6048) by how much it takes to make a necklace (24), 6048/48 = 252
Hope this helps!
