Full solution

Q. A 22-yard piece of brass wire costs $49.80\$49.80. What is the price per foot?\newline$\$_____
  1. Convert yards to feet: Convert yards to feet since the price is given per 22 yards and we need the price per foot.\newline11 yard =3= 3 feet, so 22 yards =6= 6 feet.\newlineCalculation: 22 yards ×3\times 3 feet/yard =6= 6 feet.
  2. Calculate price per foot: Calculate the price per foot by dividing the total cost by the number of feet.\newlineTotal cost = $49.80\$49.80, Total feet = 66.\newlineCalculation: $49.80÷6 feet=$8.30 per foot.\$49.80 \div 6 \text{ feet} = \$8.30 \text{ per foot}.
