Answer:

7 feet

Explanation:

To find out how many feet of fabric Jimmy has left for his third project, we need to subtract the total feet of fabric used for his first and second projects from the fabric he started with.

Fabric used for first project: 12 feet

Fabric used for second project: 17 feet

Total fabric used: 12 feet + 17 feet = 29 feet

Fabric remaining: 36 feet - 29 feet = 7 feet

Jimmy has 7 feet of fabric left for his third project.
