How to calculate the price of one coconut?

The price of one coconut can be calculated using a simple formula:

The price per coconut (p) is:

§§ p = \frac{C}{N} §§

where:

  • § p § — price per coconut
  • § C § — total cost of all coconuts
  • § N § — number of coconuts

This formula allows you to find out how much you are paying for each coconut based on the total amount spent and the quantity purchased.

Example:

Total Cost (§ C §): $100

Number of Coconuts (§ N §): 10

Price per Coconut:

§§ p = \frac{100}{10} = 10 §§

This means you are paying $10 for each coconut.
