Question

1. electrical trades if 14 - gauge romex cable sells for $0.19 per foot, what is the cost of 1210 ft of this cable?

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the unit - price and quantity

Unit - price = $0.19$ per foot, Quantity = 1210 ft

Step2: Use the cost formula

Cost = Unit - price×Quantity, so Cost = $0.19\times1210$
$0.19\times1210=(0.2 - 0.01)\times1210=0.2\times1210-0.01\times1210 = 242-12.1=229.9$

Answer:

$229.9$
