Question Prompt: Question prompt: What's the price per inch for a 9-foot roll of plastic wrap that costs $5.40?
Calculate Inches: First, let's figure out how many inches are in 9 feet. Since 1 foot is 12 inches, we do 9×12.9×12=108 inches.
Calculate Cost Per Inch: Now, we got the total cost, which is \$\(5\).\(40\), and we need to divide that by the total number of inches to get the cost per inch.\(\newline\)So, \$\(5\).\(40\) divided by \(108\) inches.\(\newline\)\(\$5.40 / 108 = \$0.05\) per inch.
