How to calculate the cost of one pack of potato starch?

To find the total cost of a pack of potato starch, you can use the following formula:

Total Cost (C) is calculated as:

§§ C = P \times W §§

where:

  • § C § — total cost of the pack
  • § P § — price per kilogram
  • § W § — weight of the pack in kilograms

This formula allows you to determine how much you will spend on a specific weight of potato starch based on its price per kilogram.

Example:

Price per kg (§ P §): $5

Weight of the pack (§ W §): 2 kg

Total Cost:

§§ C = 5 \times 2 = 10 \text{ USD} §§
