Ellie bought two packs of beads. Altogether she has 1,254 beads.
If the number of beads in each bag is the same, how many beads are in three packs?
How many packs of beads does Ellie have?

nope. Your answer indicates that each bag has 1254 beads. But that is not the case.
Two packs of beads contain 1254 beads, so each pack is half that many. So, your calculation should have been
(1254/2)*3 = 1881
The 2nd questions is actually a bit of a trick to see whether you are paying attention (which you apparently did not)
