Answer:

24.7 I think

Explanation:

1 yard = 3 feet

Every yard is $2

So I skip-counted to MAKE sure

Per yard = 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, 24.66666667

Feet = 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30, 33, 36, 38

12 yards is 38 ft= 12.6666666667. So 12.66666666667 per yard rounded to the nearest cent is 12.7 because 38 ÷ 3 is around 12.7 which also means 24.66666666667 rounded to the nearest cent is 24.7

So a 38 ft of wire would cost $24.7

This might be wrong cause I'm a 7th grader, but I'm sure it's right
