Question

Tomika uses 6 1/9 inches of wire to make a necklace and 3 1/3 inches of wire to make a bracelet. How many necklace and bracelet sets can she make if she uses 28 1/3 inches of wire in all?

Answer 1

One necklace and bracelet set is equal to 6 1/9 inches + 3 1/3 inches. That makes the total amount of wire in one set to be 9 4/9 inches. If you divide 28 1/3 by 9 4/9, you get 3.
85/3 * 9/85 = 255/85 = 51/17 = 3

FINAL ANSWER: 3 jewelry sets
