Answer:

The unit cost of nails is:

$ 0.32 per pound.

Unit cost--

Unit cost means the cost of producing a single unit of a element.

The cost of 12 pounds of nails is: $ 3.84

Now, we are asked to find the unit cost i.e. the cost of 1 pound of nail.

i.e.

$\text{Unit cost}=\frac{\text{cost of 12 pounds}}{12}$

$\text{Cost of 1 pound of nail}=(3.84)/(12)$

Hence,

$\text{Cost of 1 pound of nail}=\$\ 0.32$
