Explanation

How to calculate the cost per croissant?

The cost per croissant can be calculated using the following formula:

Total Cost:

§§ \text{Total Cost} = \text{Price per Pack} + \text{Additional Costs} §§

where:

  • § \text{Price per Pack} § — the price you pay for a pack of croissants.
  • § \text{Additional Costs} § — any extra costs associated with the purchase (e.g., delivery fees).

Cost per Croissant:

§§ \text{Cost per Croissant} = \frac{\text{Total Cost}}{\text{Number of Croissants in Pack}} §§

where:

  • § \text{Cost per Croissant} § — the cost of each individual croissant.
  • § \text{Total Cost} § — the total amount spent on the pack of croissants.
  • § \text{Number of Croissants in Pack} § — the total number of croissants contained in the pack.

Example:

  • Price per Pack: $10
  • Number of Croissants in Pack: 6
  • Additional Costs: $2

Calculating Total Cost:

§§ \text{Total Cost} = 10 + 2 = 12 \text{ USD} §§

Calculating Cost per Croissant:

§§ \text{Cost per Croissant} = \frac{12}{6} = 2 \text{ USD} §§
