Answer:
On combining the beads they can make 20 bracelets.
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of beads Samantha has  =  54 beads
Number of beads Amanda has = 2 x( Number of beads Samantha has)
= Â 2 Â x 54 Â = Â 108 beads
The total number of beads Amanda and Samantha has Â
= Â 54 beads + 108 beads
= 162 beads
Number of beads required to make 1 bracelet  =  8 beads
Now, [tex]\textrm{The number of bracelets made} Â = \frac{\textrm{Total number of beads they both have}}{\textrm{Beads required to make 1 bracelet}}[/tex]
=[tex]\frac{162}{8}  = 20.25[/tex]≈  20
or, the total number of bracelets they can make is 20.
Hence, on combining the beads they can make 20 bracelets .
