You are making necklaces for your friends. You have 64 blue beads and 40 red beads. Each friend will receive an identical neckla
ce, and all beads must be used. (a) What is the greatest number of friends who can receive a necklace? Explain your reasoning.
(b) How many of each color bead will each friend receive on the necklace? Explain you reasoning.
4 necklaces can be made each having 16 blue beads and 10 red beads. I divided each set of beads by 4 so each necklace would have the same amount of each bead color and number on each necklace.
