She doesn't have enough straws to cut 20 pieces.

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>

As the number of 1/2 inch pieces needed is 20, so the total length of all 20 pieces should be : (\frac{1}{2}*20 )inch =10 inch

Now, she has two straws and the length of each straw is 4 inches.

So, the total length of two straws =(2*4) inch= 8 inch

<em>As, the total length of two straws is less than the total length needed , that means she doesn't have enough straws to cut 20 pieces. </em>
