To find the price per yard for an 18-foot piece of rope that costs $115.56, we first need to convert feet to yards since there are 3 feet in a yard.
1. Convert 18 feet to yards:
\[
18 \text{ feet} \div 3 = 6 \text{ yards}
\]
2. Now, we need to calculate the price per yard. We do this by dividing the total cost by the number of yards:
\[
\text{Price per yard} = \frac{115.56}{6}
\]
3. Performing the calculation:
\[
\text{Price per yard} = 19.26
\]
Thus, the price per yard of the rope is:
\[
\boxed{19.26}
\]
