Answer 1

Answer:

She can make 55 bracelets

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the correct question as follows;

Ariel bought a 15 1/6 foot long string, and a 12 1/3 foot long string. If each bracelet requires 1/2 of a foot long string, how many bracelets can Ariel make

we have the solution as follows

Firstly, we need to find the total length of the strings bought

We can get this by adding what was bought

That would be;

15 1/6 + 12 1/3

= 91/6 + 37/3

= (91 + 74)/6 = 27 1/2 ft

From the question, each bracelet requires 1/2 ft long

so the number of 1/2 ft long bracelets we can find will be;

27 1/2 divided by 1/2

= 55/2 * 2/1

= 55
