How to calculate the cost per serving of meal replacement shakes?

The cost per serving can be calculated using a straightforward formula:

The cost per serving (c) is:

§§ c = \frac{a}{b} §§

where:

  • § c § — cost per serving
  • § a § — price per pack
  • § b § — number of servings per pack

This formula allows you to find out how much you are spending on each serving of meal replacement shakes.

Example:

Price per Pack (§ a §): $30

Servings per Pack (§ b §): 10

Cost per Serving:

§§ c = \frac{30}{10} = 3.00 §$

This means that each serving of the meal replacement shake costs $3.00.
