Question

Natalie had 64 beads. She used 24 beads to make a bracelet. She used 7/8 of the remaining beads to make a necklace. How many beads does Natalie have left?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Natalie have left with 5 beads.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Natalie had 64 beads. She used 24 beads to make a bracelet. She used 7/8 of the remaining beads to make a necklace.

Now, to find the beads does Natalie have left.

Total beads Natalie had = 64 beads.

And beads she used to make a bracelet = 24 beads.

So, the remaining beads are = $64-24=40\ beads.$

Now, the beads she used to make a necklace = $40 of \frac{7}{8}$

                                                                             = $40\times \frac{7}{8}$

                                                                             = $\frac{280}{8}$

                                                                             = $35\ beads$  

Hence, the beads Natalie have left = remaining beads - beads used to make necklace.

$The\ beads\ Natalie\ have\ left\ =\ 40-35$

$The\ beads\ Natalie\ have\ left\ =\ 5\ beads.$

Therefore, Natalie have left with 5 beads.
