Final answer:
Kyra will have a total of 16 strips when she cuts a 12" string into 3/4" pieces, which corresponds to option C.
Step-by-step explanation:
If Kyra cuts a 12" string into 3/4" strips for her art project, to find out how many strips she will have, you divide the total length of the string by the length of each strip. This means dividing 12 inches by 3/4 inches.
First, convert 3/4 inch to a decimal, which is 0.75 inches. Then divide 12 inches by 0.75 inches:
12 ÷ 0.75 = 16 strips
Therefore, Kyra will have a total of 16 strips for her art project, which corresponds to option C.
