Answer:
3 1/8 packages of beads
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that Darnell uses 1 1/4 packages of beads to make 10 bracelets. In order to find how many packages of beads he'll need for 25 bracelets, we set up a proportion:
, where x is the number of packages needed
Cross-multiply:
25 * 1 1/4 = 10x
1 1/4 is just 1.25 in decimal form, so:
25 * 1.25 = 10x
31.25 = 10x
x = 3.125 = 3 1/8
So, Darnell will use 3 1/8 packages of beads.
