How long the string be on a parachute?

The 'best' length for a parachute string depends on what the parachute is for and the rest of the design. If a parachute's strings are too short, the whole parachute could collapse. If the parachute's strings are too long, there may be some wobbling and bungeeing about, more twisting of the strings, etc. Parachutes for heavy things (like spacecraft) tend to have longer strings than parachutes for people, since they're less affected by this instability.


How many strings does a parachute?

A parachute needs four strings. However, redundancy is best, both for safety and control of the chute. Thus, 16 striings is better, 32 even moreso. Washers around groups of strings cuts down on the likelihood of entanglement. The length of the strings matters, as well (and so does the diameter of the parachute).
