Ans: After making the first necklace, Dhruv was left with 84 shells.
Number of shells used for the second necklace $ = 28$
Number of shells left with Dhruv$ = 84 - 28 = 56$
Working: $ = 84 - 28 = 56$Thus, Dhruv was left with 56 shells after making the second necklace.
Dhruv took 28 more shells for making the third necklace.Number of shells left with
Dhruv after making third necklace $ = 56 - 28 = 28$
Dhruv made a necklace of 28 shells for each of his three friends.
