Answer:

24 necklaces

Step-by-step explanation:

272+38-89=221

221/9=24.5555556

the MOST you can make is 24 though, because you can't make .5555556 of a necklace.

First, add the amount of added beads to her original total.

272 + 38 = 310

Then, subtract the amount of beads she'll use for the bracelets from her total.

310 - 89 = 221

Now, divide 221 by 9.

221 ÷ 9 = 24.555555555555555555555555555556

Since Hayley can't make 0.555555555555555555555555555556 of a bracelet, round down to 24.

<u>Hayley can make a total of 24 bracelets.</u>
