If tile costs $8.50 per square foot, how much does it cost per inch?

$0.06 per square inch

Step-by-step explanation:

The question should be:

"If tile costs $8.50 per square foot, how much does it cost per square inch?"

To solve this, we basically need a conversion from feet to inches. BUT 2 times, since we are talking about "square feet" and "square inches".

We know 1 feet = 12 inches

Also, since we are going from square feet to square inches [big to small], we have to divide TWICE.

Thus, we will have:

We are dividing 8.5 (the cost) by 12, 2 times since we want square feet in square inches. The answer is:

So, tile costs $0.06 per square inch
