How to calculate the cost per sachet?

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

The cost per sachet (C) is:

§§ C = \frac{T}{N} §§

where:

  • § C § — cost per sachet
  • § T § — total cost of the product
  • § N § — number of sachets in the package

This formula allows you to find out how much each individual sachet costs based on the total expenditure and the quantity of sachets.

Example:

Total Cost (§ T §): $100

Number of Sachets (§ N §): 10

Cost per Sachet:

§§ C = \frac{100}{10} = 10 §

This means that each sachet costs $10.
