Answer:

Trudy will have 4 pieces of the fabric.

Explanation:

Since, 1 foot of the fabric = 12 inches

If Trudy cuts the fabric into pieces of 3 inch.

Number of pieces she will have =
\frac{\text{Total length of the fabric}}{\text{Length of one piece}}

=
(12)/(3)

= 4 pieces

Therefore, she will have 4 pieces of the fabric.
