<h2>Answer:</h2>
A.
Let Annie's weight be = a
Let Benjie's weighs = b
Let Carmen's weight be = c
One day Annie weighed 24 ounces more than Benjie, equation forms:
......(1)
Benjie weighed 3 1/4 pounds less than Carmen.
In ounces:
1 pound = 16 ounces
pounds =
ounces
or
......(2)
Now adding (1) and (2), we get
a+b=b+24+c-52
=> 
This gives Annie weighs 28 ounces less than Carmen.
B.
We cannot know anyone's actual weight, as we only know their relative weights.
6 people per group 6 people * 4 groups = 24 portions
Find the amount of beads per inch:
12/5 = 2.4 (this doesn't make sense, but it will)
Now find the total beads on one foot, or 12 inches
2.4 x 12 = 28.8
Since 29 wont fit, 28 will be the largest whole number of beads that can fit on the string
I will do the homework for you but is is a quiz or test I can only do if it homework
