Final answer:
To calculate the total length of Lauren's beaded bookmark, we multiply the length of one bead (2/7 inch) by the total number of beads (14) to get a total length of 4 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
The student's question involves finding the total length of a bookmark made with beads. Each bead has a length of 2/7 of an inch, and Lauren used 14 beads in total.
To find the total length of the bookmark, we can multiply the length of one bead by the number of beads Lauren used:
Total length = length of one bead × number of beads
Total length = 2/7 inch × 14
To calculate this, we can perform the multiplication: 2/7 × 14 = 28/7 inches, which simplifies to 4 inches.
Therefore, the total length of the bookmark that Lauren made is 4 inches.
