Answer:

10 strips

Work:

12 1/2

1/2 = 2/4

12 2/4 divided by 1 1/4 is 10.

Solve:

12 2/4 = 50/4

1 1/4 = 5/4

50/4 divided by 5/4

50/4 * 4/5 =  200/20 = 10

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make this into a decimal.

12 1/2=12.5

1 1/4=1.25

The number is same, except the decimal points.

To multiply a decimal by 10, you put the decimal point to the right.

1.25*10.12.5

12 1/2=12.5
