Cost per Pack of Hydration Tablets Calculator
Explanation
How to calculate the total cost for hydration tablets?
To determine the total cost for the required number of hydration tablets, you can use the following formula:
Total Cost Calculation:
§§ \text{Total Cost} = \left( \frac{\text{Price per Pack}}{\text{Tablets per Pack}} \right) \times (\text{Tablets per Serving} \times \text{Servings Needed}) §§
where:
- § \text{Total Cost} § — the total cost for the required number of tablets
- § \text{Price per Pack} § — the price of one pack of hydration tablets
- § \text{Tablets per Pack} § — the total number of tablets in one pack
- § \text{Tablets per Serving} § — the number of tablets needed for one serving
- § \text{Servings Needed} § — the total number of servings required
Example:
- Price per Pack (§ \text{Price per Pack} §): $10
- Tablets per Pack (§ \text{Tablets per Pack} §): 20
- Tablets per Serving (§ \text{Tablets per Serving} §): 2
- Servings Needed (§ \text{Servings Needed} §): 5
Total Cost Calculation:
Calculate the cost per tablet:
- §§ \text{Cost per Tablet} = \frac{10}{20} = 0.5 \text{ USD} §§
Calculate the total tablets needed:
- §§ \text{Total Tablets Needed} = 2 \times 5 = 10 \text{ tablets} §§
Calculate the total cost:
- §§ \text{Total Cost} = 0.5 \times 10 = 5 \text{ USD} §§
