Question

Mrs.Gomez paid $780 for a new backyard fence. A new gate cost and additional $225. The fencing was a total of 120 feet. What was the unit cost per foot for the fence?

Answer 1

I’m not sure what the gate has to do with the problem, but you should just divide 780 by 120 to get 6.5. In other words, each foot costs $6.50.
