~Denki Kaminari here~

so what we're going to do is, find the cost of wrapping paper per foot,

6.03 divided by 9 = 0.67

now we're going to convert the 9ft into yards,

1 yard= 3ft so, there are 3 yards.

now that we know that there are 3 ft in one yard, we are going to multiply 0.67 by 3

0.67x3= 2.01

so, we got $2.01 per yard

hope this helps :D
