Full solution

Q. A 66-foot piece of copper wire costs $10.08\$10.08. What is the price per inch
  1. Convert feet to inches: First, we need to determine how many inches are in 66 feet to find the price per inch.\newlineThere are 1212 inches in 11 foot, so we multiply 66 feet by 1212 inches/foot.\newline6 feet×12 inches/foot=72 inches6 \text{ feet} \times 12 \text{ inches/foot} = 72 \text{ inches}
  2. Calculate price per inch: Next, we calculate the price per inch by dividing the total cost by the number of inches.\newlineThe total cost is $10.08\$10.08, and we have 7272 inches.\newlinePrice per inch = Total cost / Number of inches\newlinePrice per inch = $10.08/72\$10.08 / 72 inches
  3. Find final price per inch: Now, we perform the division to find the price per inch.$10.08/72\$10.08 / 72 inches = $0.14\$0.14 per inch
