Final answer:

Yes, the student has enough glue to fill all of the bottles.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine if the student has enough glue to fill all the bottles, we need to compare the total volume of the glue to the total volume of the bottles.

3 quarts of glue is equal to 12 cups (1 quart = 4 cups).

The student has 24 empty glue bottles, and each bottle holds 1 cup of glue. Therefore, she needs a total of 24 cups of glue to fill all the bottles.

Since she has 12 cups of glue, which is more than the 24 cups needed, she does have enough glue to fill all of the bottles.
