Answer:

The length of each paper strip is 0.25 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Jonathon has paper strips and the length of all strips are equal.

He use 12 paper strips to make a line of paper strip and the length of the line is 3 feet.

Let the length of each paper strip be x.

[tex]12x=3[/tex]

Divide both sides by 12.

[tex]x=\frac{3}{12}[/tex]

[tex]x=0.25[/tex]

Therefore the length of each paper strip is 0.25 ft.
