Answer:
$0.03 per inch
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to convert 8 meters to inches first.
Unit ratio for meters to cm is:
[tex]\frac{1m}{100cm}[/tex]
So 8 meters is 800 cm
Now,
we need to convert 800 cm to inches
Unit ratio for cm to inches is:
[tex]\frac{2.54cm}{1inch}[/tex]
So, 800 cm is :
[tex]\frac{800}{2.54}=314.96[/tex]inches
To get costing per inch, we divide total cost ($10) by the total number of inches (which is 314.96):
[tex]\frac{10}{314.96}=0.032[/tex]
Rounded to nearest hundredth, $0.03 per inch
