To find the number of bracelets Sam can make, we need to divide the total length of cord Sam has by the length of cord needed for each bracelet.
1 1/2 feet = 3/2 feet.
1/4 of a foot is needed for each bracelet.
To find how many bracelets can be made, we divide the total length of cord Sam has by the length of cord needed for each bracelet:
(3/2) รท (1/4) = (3/2) x (4/1) = 12/2 = <<3=3>>3.
Sam can make 3 bracelets. Answer: \boxed{3}.

feet of cord to make bracelets. Each bracelet needs 1/4
foot of cord. How many bracelets can he make?
