How to calculate the cost per pack of dried fruit?

To determine the total cost of dried fruit packs, you can use the following formula:

Total Cost (C) is calculated as:

§§ C = \left( \frac{P}{1000} \right) \times W \times N §§

where:

  • § C § — total cost of the dried fruit packs
  • § P § — price per kilogram of dried fruit
  • § W § — weight of each pack in grams
  • § N § — number of packs

This formula allows you to calculate how much you will spend on a specific number of packs of dried fruit based on the price per kilogram and the weight of each pack.

Example:

Price per kg (§ P §): €10

Weight of each pack (§ W §): 500 grams

Number of packs (§ N §): 2

Total Cost:

§§ C = \left( \frac{10}{1000} \right) \times 500 \times 2 = €10 §§
