Answer 1

`27(1)/(3)\text{ inches}`

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the approximate lengtth of Erin's necklace

From the question, we have it that Erin's necklace is 2 2/3 times as long

To get the length of Erin's necklace, we have to multiply the length of Joelle's necklace by 2 2/3. Mathematically, we have this as:

`2(2)/(3)\text{ }*\text{ 10}(1)/(4)\text{ = }(8)/(3)*(41)/(4)\text{ = }(82)/(3)\text{ = 27}(1)/(3)\text{ inches}`
