Answer: C

Explanation:

Given

Nancy bought the bag with 1100 beads to make necklaces

She found another bag with 700 beads

So, the total number of beads is the sum of two i.e. 1800 beads

It takes 50 beads per necklace

The number of necklaces that can be formed is


\Rightarrow (1800)/(50)\\\\\Rightarrow 36\ \text{Necklaces}
