Okay. So, to solve this kind of problem, you have to do division. This means dividing the investors of beads total by the number of beads being used each. 2/5 is equivalent to 4/10, so you have 33 4/10. Divide by 2 7/10. Convert each into improper fractions: 334/10 and 27/10. To divide decimals, keep, change, flip. 334/10 * 10/27 = 3,340/270 or 12 in simplest form. Alexis can make 12 bracelets.
