How to calculate the cost per pack of tents?

The total cost of purchasing tents can be calculated using the following formulas:

  1. Total Cost of Tents:

    The total cost of the tents can be calculated as:

    §§ \text{Total Tent Cost} = \text{Price per Tent} \times \text{Tents per Pack} §§

    where:

    • § \text{Total Tent Cost} § — total cost of the tents
    • § \text{Price per Tent} § — cost of a single tent
    • § \text{Tents per Pack} § — number of tents included in a pack

    Example:

    If the price per tent is $10 and there are 5 tents in a pack:

    §§ \text{Total Tent Cost} = 10 \times 5 = 50 \text{ USD} §§

  2. Total Cost of Pack (with tax):

    The total cost of the pack, including sales tax, can be calculated as:

    §§ \text{Total Cost of Pack} = \text{Cost of Pack} + \left( \text{Cost of Pack} \times \frac{\text{Sales Tax}}{100} \right) §§

    where:

    • § \text{Total Cost of Pack} § — total cost of the pack including tax
    • § \text{Cost of Pack} § — base cost of the pack
    • § \text{Sales Tax} § — percentage of sales tax applied

    Example:

    If the cost of the pack is $50 and the sales tax is 5%:

    §§ \text{Total Cost of Pack} = 50 + \left( 50 \times \frac{5}{100} \right) = 50 + 2.5 = 52.5 \text{ USD} §§
