Sam has 1 1/2 feet of cord to make bracelets. Each bracelet needs 1/4 foot of cord. How many bracelets can he make?(1 point)
blank
To find out how many bracelets Sam can make, we need to divide the total length of cord he has by the length needed for each bracelet.
Total cord length: 1 1/2 feet = 1 + 1/2 = 2/2 + 1/2 = 3/2 feet
Length needed for each bracelet: 1/4 foot
Number of bracelets Sam can make: (3/2) / (1/4) = (3/2) * (4/1) = 6/2 = 3
Sam can make 3 bracelets.
