Answer 2

Answer: There are 3 necklace and bracelet sets she can make .

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of wire she used to make a necklace is given by

$6\frac{1}{9}\text{ inches }=\frac{85}{3}\text{ inches }$

Length of wire she used to make a bracelet is given by

$3\frac{1}{3}\text{ inches }=\frac{55}{3}\text{ inches }$

Total length of wire she is used  in all is given by

$28\frac{1}{3}\text{ inches }=\frac{10}{3}\text{ inches }$

Now, we calculate number of necklace and bracelet sets she can make ,

So,

$\text{ Number of bracelet and necklace }\\\\= \frac{\frac{85}{3}}{\frac{55}{9}+\frac{10}{3}}\\\\=\frac{\frac{85}{3}}{\frac{85}{9}}\\\\=3$

So, there are 3 necklace and bracelet sets she can make .
