Suppose that 13 inches of wire cost 39 cent how much would 8 inches cost
Feliz [49]

Answer:

24 cent

Step-by-step explanation:

If 13 inches of wire cost 39 cent.

We have to calculate how much 1 inch of wire would cost first, before determining the cost of 8 inches of wire.

If 13 inches of wire costs 39cents, Then 1 inch of wire would cost 3 cent.

That is 39/13, which gives 3.

If 1 inch of wire cost 3 cents. Two inches of wire would cost 6 cents we 3 inches of wire costs 9 cents.

To get the cost of 8 inches of wire, we therefore multiply 8 by 3, which gives 24.

8 inches of wire costs 24 cents.

5/8=.625 = 6.625

Then, add all of them together

8.250+6.500+6.625=21.375
