How to calculate the cost per snack in a pack of baby snacks?

The cost per snack can be calculated using a straightforward formula:

Cost per Snack (C) is given by:

§§ C = \frac{P}{N} §§

where:

  • § C § — cost per snack
  • § P § — price per pack
  • § N § — number of snacks in the pack

This formula allows you to find out how much you are spending on each individual snack, which can be particularly useful for budgeting and comparing different products.

Example:

Price per Pack (§ P §): $10

Number of Snacks in Pack (§ N §): 20

Cost per Snack:

§§ C = \frac{10}{20} = 0.50 \text{ (or 50 cents)} §§
