Somebody .. i need to know how to solve this .and what is the megan is making bracelets to sell to earn money for the local animal shelter. it take her 1/4 hour to pick up out all the beads and 1/10 hour to string them. this week she only has 5 1/4 hours to make bracelets . how many bracelets will megan be able to make : (

First, convert all fractions to the lowest common denominator: 20

It takes 5/20 of an hour to string bracelets and 2/20 of an hour to string them. Thus, it takes 7/20 of an hour to make one bracelet.

Megan has 5 and 4/20 hours, or 104/20 hours, to make bracelets. Here, we must divide 104/20 hours by 7/20 hours.

Really, it is dividing 104 by 7 since they have the same denominator. 104/7 is 14.86, so she can make 14 whole bracelets in 5 and 1/4 hours.
