Cost of Organic Food Delivery Calculator
Explanation
How to calculate the total cost of organic food delivery?
The total cost can be calculated using the following formula:
Total Cost (TC) is calculated as:
§§ TC = (Q \times P) + D - (D \times \frac{Disc}{100}) §§
where:
- § TC § — total cost
- § Q § — quantity of organic food
- § P § — price per unit of organic food
- § D § — delivery cost
- § Disc § — discount percentage
This formula allows you to determine the total amount you will pay for your organic food delivery, including any applicable discounts.
Example:
- Quantity (Q): 10
- Price per Unit (P): $5
- Delivery Cost (D): $2
- Discount (Disc): 10%
Total Cost:
§§ TC = (10 \times 5) + 2 - (2 \times \frac{10}{100}) = 50 + 2 - 0.2 = 51.80 §$
