A single yard is equivalent to 3 feet. With this information, we find that 2 yards are equal to 6 feet.

A 6 feet piece of copper wire costs $69.60. Divide the total price by the amount of feet to find the price per foot.

The price per foot is $11.60. Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!
