SOLUTION:

The total number of people to share the beads are five (5), namely; Janice and her four (4) friends.

To divide beads equally without any left over then the total number of beads must be a multiple of 5.

The multiple of 5 among the given options is 45 which means that they will receive 45 divided by 5 which is 9 each.
