Cost per Pack of Zinc Supplements Calculator
Explanation
How to calculate the cost per capsule of zinc supplements?
To determine the cost per capsule and the daily cost of zinc supplements, you can use the following formulas:
Cost per Capsule:
§§ \text{Cost per Capsule} = \frac{\text{Price per Pack}}{\text{Capsules per Pack}} §§
where:
- § \text{Cost per Capsule} § — the cost of a single capsule
- § \text{Price per Pack} § — the total price of the pack
- § \text{Capsules per Pack} § — the total number of capsules in the pack
Example:
Price per Pack (§ \text{Price per Pack} §): $20
Capsules per Pack (§ \text{Capsules per Pack} §): 30
Cost per Capsule:
§§ \text{Cost per Capsule} = \frac{20}{30} \approx 0.67 \text{ USD} §§
Daily Cost:
§§ \text{Daily Cost} = \text{Cost per Capsule} \times \text{Recommended Daily Dose} §§
where:
- § \text{Daily Cost} § — the total cost of taking the recommended daily dose
- § \text{Recommended Daily Dose} § — the number of capsules to be taken daily
Example:
Cost per Capsule (§ \text{Cost per Capsule} §): $0.67
Recommended Daily Dose (§ \text{Recommended Daily Dose} §): 1
Daily Cost:
§§ \text{Daily Cost} = 0.67 \times 1 = 0.67 \text{ USD} §§
