Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
We estimate the number as 49/8 ≈ 6. We can check to see if this is too many by finding the chain required for 6 bracelets:
6 × 8 1/4 = 6×8 +6×1/4 = 48 +6/4 = 49 1/2
Sue can make 6 bracelets.
_____
You can also divide the total length of chain by the amount per bracelet:
(49 1/2)/(8 1/4) = (99/2)/(33/4)
= (99/2)(4/33) = (99/33)(4/2)
= (3)(2) = 6
