    Divide total length (36 inches) by the length of one paper clip (3/4 inch) to find the total number of paper clips:

    36 / 3/4 = (36*4) / 3 = 144 / 3 = 48

    They used 48 total paper clips.

    Each paper clip cost $0.02.

    Multiply the total number of clips by the cost for one:

    48 x 0.02 = 0.96

    Total cost is $0.96
