We will use the conversion factor 1 yard= 3 feet. We can write:

Cost of 2 Feet= 2ft (1yd/3ft) ($12.99/ 1yd)= $8.66

If you would like to know how much will you pay for 2 feet, you can calculate this using the following steps:

1 yard equals to 3 feet
1 yard for $12.99:
3 feet ... $12.99
2 feet ... $x = ?

3 * x = 2 * 12.99 /3
x = 2 * 12.99 / 3
x = $8.66

The correct result would be $8.66.
