To find out how many blue beads Brittany received, we can calculate 58% of the total number of beads she ordered.
First, we need to find 58% of 50 beads:
\[
\text{Number of blue beads} = 50 \times \frac{58}{100}
\]
Calculating this step-by-step:
1. Convert 58% to a decimal:
\[
58\% = 0.58
\]
2. Multiply the total number of beads by the decimal:
\[
50 \times 0.58 = 29
\]
Therefore, Brittany received **29 blue beads**.
