How to calculate the cost of one bag of trail mix?

To find the total cost of purchasing a certain number of bags of trail mix, you can use the following formula:

Total Cost (C) is calculated as:

§§ C = \left( \frac{P}{1000} \right) \times W \times N §§

where:

  • § C § — total cost
  • § P § — price per kilogram (in your selected currency)
  • § W § — weight of one bag (in grams)
  • § N § — number of bags

This formula allows you to determine how much you will spend based on the price per kilogram, the weight of each bag, and the number of bags you wish to purchase.

Example:

  • Price per kg (§ P §): $20
  • Weight of one bag (§ W §): 500 grams
  • Number of bags (§ N §): 3

Total Cost:

§§ C = \left( \frac{20}{1000} \right) \times 500 \times 3 = 30 \text{ USD} §§
