Question

A 2-foot piece of aluminum wire costs $13.44. What is the price per inch?

Answer 1

One foot is equal to 12 inches, so a 2-foot piece of wire is 24 inches long.

The cost of the wire per inch can be found by dividing the total cost by the number of inches:

Price per inch = Total cost / Number of inches

Price per inch = $13.44 / 24 inches

Price per inch = $0.56

Therefore, the price per inch of the aluminum wire is $0.56.

Answer 2

Answer: $0.56 cents per inch

Step-by-step explanation: 2 feet = 24 inches 13.44/24 = 0.56
