Answer:

It will cost 72 $ for fencing.

Explanation:

He measures and determines that he needs 24 feet of fencing.

Total fencing required = 24 feet

We have 1 feet = 12 inches

Total fencing required = 24 feet = 24 x 12 = 288 inches

Cost for fencing per inch = $0.25

Cost for Justice = Total fencing required in inches x Cost for fencing per inch

Cost for Justice = 288 x 0.25 = 72 $

It will cost 72 $ for fencing.
