Answer:
Gemma made $34 more than Leah.
Step-by-step explanation:
Gemma made number of beaded necklaces = 106
Leah made 39 more necklaces than Gemma.
Leah made number of beaded necklaces = 106 + 39 = 145
a. There are 104 beads on each necklace.
The total number of beads used altogether
= (106 × 104) + (145 × 104)
= 11,024 + 15,080
= 26,104
b. Gemma sold her 106 necklaces for = $14
Total price of her necklaces = 106 × 14
= $1,484
Leah sold her 145 necklaces for = $10
Total price of her necklaces = 145 × 10
= $1,450
Difference in Gemma and Leah's amount = 1484 - 1450 = $34.00
Therefore, Gemma made $34.00 more money than Leah.
