How to calculate the total cost of measuring spoons?

The total cost can be calculated using a straightforward formula:

Total Cost (C) is given by:

§§ C = N \times P §§

where:

  • § C § — total cost
  • § N § — number of measuring spoons
  • § P § — price per measuring spoon

This formula allows you to find out how much you will spend based on the quantity of spoons you want to purchase and the cost of each spoon.

Example:

Number of Spoons (§ N §): 5

Price per Spoon (§ P §): $2

Total Cost:

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