Answer:

3 assignments incomplete.

Explanation:

context: 75% can be rewritten as 0.75

12 × 0.75 = 9 assignments completed.

The above equation shows the amount of assignments that have been already completed. In order to find out how many assignments she has yet to have completed, we need to subtract these amounts.

12 - 9 = 3 assignments incomplete.
