Question

Sydney wants to make 15 beaded rings for a craft show. She needs 60 beads for each ring. She has 852 beads. Does Sydney have enough beads to make 15 complete rings?
Explain your answer. Include all work used to determine if she has enough beads

Answer 1

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Sydney wants to make 15 rings, and each ring requires 60 beads. That means you need to multiply 60 beads by 15 rings to see how many beads she needs. 60 times 15 is 900. Sydney only has 852 beads.

Answer 2

Answer:

She does not have enough to make 15 rings

Step-by-step explanation:

Sydney wants to make 15 rings. Each ring needs 60 beads. This means in order to find out if he has enough beads we need to divide the number of beads she has,852, by 60 and see if the quotient is at least 15. When we divide we get 14.2, which is less than 15. She does not have enough beads.
