Answer:

29 bracelets

Explanation:

The first thing you (always) need to do is highlight important details. Some things you should highlight are: The entry fee is $150, He makes $4 off of each bracelet, and that he has $36 so far. We know that 4 times 10 is 40. if we add 40+ the 36, we get 76. now we need 74 more dollars, so let's do: 74 divided by 4 = 18.5. since we can't do that, we add one more bracelet to make it 19. This makes sure we get enough money for the fee. All we have to do now is add is together. 10+19= 29 bracelets
