24 bookmarks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ed is making 1/2 foot long bookmarks out of leather strips.

Now, if he has 12 leather strips that each measure 1 foot long, then each of the 1-foot leather strip can be made into half foot long bookmarks.

Hence, from all the 12 leather strips he can make (12 × 2) = 24 bookmarks.

So, the equation that represents the number of bookmarks that can be made will be, (Answer).
