Solve for the bracelet first.
x represents number of beads for bracelet
So it would be number of beads for the bracelet + number of beads for necklace (5x) and they both equal 192
x + 5x = 192
Then you would add the x and 5x.<br />6x = 192
Now all you have to do is divide by 6 on both sides.
6× ÷ 6 = 192 ÷ 6
You know have the number of beads it takes for a bracelet.
x = 32
to get the necklace all you need to do is multiply it by 5 because you need 5 times more for the necklace.
32 × 5
total beads needed is 160.
160
x+5x=192
6×=192
6x÷6=192÷6
x=32
necklace needs 32x5
beads per necklace is 160
