1. Normally the price is measured in € in Europe. (In those ancient euro-less times the nickname of a Dutch 1000 guilders billet was ton - but I assume that you don't mean this(?))

2. 38.265 m ----> 126.72244 feet

126.72244 feet * 26 lbs/feet ----> 3294.783465 lbs

3294.783465 lbs ----> 1494.4887 kg = 1.4944887 t

Total price:

38.265 m * 51.04 €/m ----> 1953.0456 €

1953.0456 € / 1.4944887 t = 1306.832 €/t
