To determine the number of bows Samantha can make, we need to divide the total length of ribbon she has by the length of ribbon needed for each bow.
Since Samantha has 83.2 meters of ribbon and each bow requires 1.28 meters, we can divide 83.2 by 1.28:
83.2 / 1.28 = 65
Therefore, Samantha can make 65 bows with the given amount of ribbon.
