Answer:-Sal can make 10 bracelets with 5 feet of yarn.


Explanation:-

We know that 1 foot = 12 inches

⇒1 inch=
(1)/(12)\ foot

Yarn used for 1 bracelet = 6 inches
=(6)/(12)\ feet=0.5 foot

Number of bracelets made in 5 feet
=(5)/(0.5)=10

therefore, Sal can make 10 bracelets with 5 feet of yarn.
