Answer 1

Answer: 22%

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Bracelet

Total number of beads: 15

Blue beads: 15/3 = 5

2) Necklace

Total number of beads: 85

Blue beads: 85/5 = 17

3) Total number of blue beads = 5 + 17 = 22

Total number of beads = 15 + 85 = 100

4) Percent = (number of blue beads / total number of beads) * 100 = (22/100)*100 = 22
