To find out how many feet of border Josephine needs, we first need to calculate the perimeter of her room. The perimeter is the distance around the room.

The room has a length of 10 9/12 ft. To convert the fraction to a decimal, we add 9/12 to 10. 9/12 is equal to 0.75, so the length of the room is 10.75 ft.

The room has a width of 8 1/2 ft. To convert the fraction to a decimal, we add 1/2 to 8. 1/2 is equal to 0.5, so the width of the room is 8.5 ft.

To calculate the perimeter, we use the formula P = 2L + 2W, where P is the perimeter, L is the length, and W is the width.

P = 2(10.75) + 2(8.5)
= 21.5 + 17
= 38.5 ft

Therefore, Josephine needs 38.5 feet of wallpaper border to go around the ceiling of her room.
