How to calculate the total cost per pack of herbs?

The total cost can be calculated using the following formula:

Total Cost (C) is given by:

§§ C = P \times W \times N §§

where:

  • § C § — total cost
  • § P § — price per unit weight (e.g., per gram or kilogram)
  • § W § — weight of each pack (in grams or kilograms)
  • § N § — number of packs

This formula allows you to find out how much you will spend in total when purchasing a specific number of packs of herbs, given the price per unit weight and the weight of each pack.

Example:

Price per Unit Weight (§ P §): $10 per kg

Weight of Pack (§ W §): 0.5 kg (500 grams)

Number of Packs (§ N §): 3

Total Cost:

§§ C = 10 \times 0.5 \times 3 = 15 \text{ USD} §§
