Given :

Liam has a bag of b beads.

He gives 20 beads to his sister.

He then makes 4 necklaces with the same of beads on each necklace using all of the remaining beads.

To Find :

Write an expression that represents the number of beads on each necklace.

Solution :

Number of necklace remains after giving 20 beads to his sister is ( b - 20 ).

Number of beads on each necklace using all of the remaining beads  is :

[tex]N=\dfrac{b-20}{4}[/tex]

Hence, this is the required solution.
