The answer is option B - 10 strips

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is :

The total length of fabric given is = 5 yards

Maria divides this fabric in
(1)/(2) yards strips each.

So, total number of strips made are =

In
(1)/(2) yards, strips made = 1

In 1 yard, strips made = 2

In 5 yards, strips made are =
2*5=10

Hence, total strips are 10.
