Answer:

$ 5.4

Explanation:

Cost of 1
(2)/(3) yards of chain = $ 9

Cost of
(5)/(3) yards of chain = $9

we have to find the cost of 1 yard chain

Hence, cost of 1 yard chain= $ 9÷
(5)/(3)

Cost of 1 yard chain= $ 9×
(3)/(5)

Cost of 1 yard chain=
(27)/(5)

Cost of 1 yard chain= $5.4

Hence, the cost of 1 yard chain is $ 5.4

Hence, the correct answer is $ 5.4
