Quinoa Price Calculator
Explanation
How to calculate the price of one pack of quinoa?
To find the total price of quinoa, you can use the following formula:
Total Price (TP) is calculated as:
§§ TP = \left( \frac{W}{1000} \right) \times P \times N §§
where:
- § TP § — total price
- § W § — weight of the pack in grams
- § P § — price per kilogram
- § N § — number of packs
This formula allows you to calculate how much you will spend based on the weight of the quinoa pack, the price per kilogram, and how many packs you want to buy.
Example:
Weight of Pack (§ W §): 500 grams
Price per Kilogram (§ P §): $20
Number of Packs (§ N §): 2
Total Price:
§§ TP = \left( \frac{500}{1000} \right) \times 20 \times 2 = 20 \text{ dollars} §§
