The table shows the number of beads used to make a necklace. Ginger wants to make a smaller necklace using the same ratio of pink to white beads. How many different necklaces could Ginger make? How do you know?
To determine how many different necklaces Ginger can make with the same ratio of pink to white beads, we first need to analyze the given table. Unfortunately, you haven't provided the actual table, so I won't be able to refer to it directly. However, I can guide you through the steps to find the answer using the information you provided.
1. Identify the ratio of pink to white beads in the original necklace: Look at the original table and determine the ratio of pink beads to white beads. For example, if the table shows 4 pink beads and 6 white beads, the ratio would be 4:6 or simplified to 2:3.
2. Determine the total number of beads in the original necklace: Add up the number of pink and white beads in the original necklace. If the original necklace had 10 beads in total (4 pink + 6 white), remember this sum.
3. Find the number of possible variations: Now that we have the ratio and the total number of beads, we can determine how many different necklaces Ginger can make. For Ginger to make a smaller necklace with the same ratio, the total number of beads in the new necklace must be a multiple of the total number of beads in the original necklace.
For instance, if the total number of beads in the original necklace was 10, and Ginger wants to make a smaller necklace, the total number of beads in the new necklace could be 5, 10, 15, etc. These values must be multiples of 10.
By finding all the multiples of the total number of beads in the original necklace, we can determine the number of different necklaces Ginger can make.
Unfortunately, without the actual table data, we cannot calculate the specific number of different necklaces Ginger can make. However, you can follow the steps outlined above with the actual table information to find the answer.
