Answer:

She will be able to make 8 wreaths

Explanation:

I got my answer by first converting 3 1/4 into 13/4. I then divide 28 by 13/4 which was multiplying 28 by 4/13.

I got 112 when I did 28 × 4

I then divided 112 by 13

and got 8.615.

Since they are asking for how much wreaths she could make, it is going to be 8
