Answer:

The price of one inch can be represented as: $10.08 ÷ (6×12).

Or it can also be represented as P ÷ (ft × in)

p = total price = $10.08

ft = feet = 6ft

in = inches = 6ft x 12 = 72in

Explanation:

To get the initial price of each inch, we have to divide $10.08 by 72.

1008 ÷ 72 = 14. Or to summarize it for you, $0.14.

To conclude it for you, one inch of aluminum wire is worth 14 cents.
