Question

Kristin has 36 purple beads, 12 clear beads, and 24 yellow beads. She wants to put and equal number of beads on string to make necklaces, with only one color of beads on each string. How many beads can Kristin put on each string?

Answer 1

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, Kristin does not want to mix colors. She wants to put an equal number of beads on a string to make necklaces. This means that she needs to find a common denominator among these numbers. This is 12, as it is the lowest number available, as well as a common denominator. By putting 12 beads on each string, she can make 3 strings of purple beads, 1 string of clear beads and 2 strings of yellow beads without mixing any colors.

Answer 2

You have to multiply all of these numbers like 26,12,24
