Shanti had 275 red beads and 3 tines as many blue beads as red beads. She used a total of 156 beads to make a bracelet how many beads did she have left?

Calculate Blue Beads:
Blue Beads =3 * Red Beads
Blue Beads = 3(275)
Blue Beads = 825

Subtract off the beads Shanti used for the bracelet:
825 - 156 = 669
