How to calculate the cost per pair of baby socks?

To find the cost per pair of baby socks, you can use the following formula:

Total Cost Calculation:

§§ \text{Total Cost} = \text{Pack Price} + \text{Shipping Cost} + \text{Taxes} §§

where:

  • § \text{Total Cost} § — the total amount spent on the pack of socks
  • § \text{Pack Price} § — the price of the pack of baby socks
  • § \text{Shipping Cost} § — the cost of shipping the pack
  • § \text{Taxes} § — any applicable taxes

Cost per Pair Calculation:

§§ \text{Cost per Pair} = \frac{\text{Total Cost}}{\text{Pairs per Pack}} §§

where:

  • § \text{Cost per Pair} § — the cost of each individual pair of socks
  • § \text{Pairs per Pack} § — the number of pairs of socks included in the pack

Example:

  1. Input Values:

    • Pack Price (§ \text{Pack Price} §): $10
    • Pairs per Pack (§ \text{Pairs per Pack} §): 5
    • Shipping Cost (§ \text{Shipping Cost} §): $2
    • Taxes (§ \text{Taxes} §): $1

  2. Total Cost Calculation:

    • Total Cost: §§ \text{Total Cost} = 10 + 2 + 1 = 13 \text{ USD} §§

  3. Cost per Pair Calculation:

    • Cost per Pair: §§ \text{Cost per Pair} = \frac{13}{5} = 2.60 \text{ USD} §§
