Answer: 264 students will be able to make the project with the clay sticks.

Explanation:

The number of packages of clay that Ms.Hewitt bought is 132.

Each package has 6 sticks of clay. This means that the number of sticks of clay in each package would be

132 × 6 = 792

Each student will receive 3 sticks of clay for a project. Therefore, the number of students that will be able to make the project with the clay sticks is

792/3 = 264 students
