Answer:

4500 cent

Explanation:

From the question, we were told that

a fence 80 meters long requires 30 nails per meter.

1 metre fence = 30 nails

Then 80 meters long= ( 30 × 80)

= 2400 nails

Which means a fence 80 meters long will require 2400 nails in total.

We need to find the cost in dollars for the nails to build a fence 80 meters long.

We know that 40 nails per box will cost 75 cents per box.

(2400 nails/40 nail per box)= 60 box

Then 60 box will be needed to complete the fence.

the cost in dollars for the nails to build a fence 80 meters long= (60 box × 75 cent per box)=4500 cent
