Each paper clip is 3/4 of an inch long and costs $0.02. exactly enough paper clips are laid end to end to have a total length of 36 inches. what is the total cost of these paper clips?

So for this equation the first thing that we need to do is see how many times that 3/4 goes into 36 which can be found by taking 36/.75=48 next we take 48*.02 to get .96 so the total cost of 48 paper clips is 98 cents or $.98 Enjoy!=)
