Problema Solution
Sal is making bracelets for a fundraiser. He used 6 inches of yarn per bracelet. How many bracelets can Sal make with five feet of yarn?
Answer provided by our tutors
1 ft = 12 in
5 ft = 5*12 in
5 ft = 60 in
Let 'x' represent the number of bracelets made from 5 feet yarn then:
6x = 60 divide both sides by 6
x = 60/6
x = 10 bracelets
Sal can make 10 bracelets from 5 feet yarn.
