How to calculate the total cost of fennel?

The total cost of fennel can be calculated using the following formula:

Total Cost (TC) is given by:

§§ TC = W \times P \times (1 - \frac{D}{100}) §§

where:

  • § TC § — total cost
  • § W § — weight of fennel (in kilograms or pounds)
  • § P § — price per unit (in currency)
  • § D § — discount percentage (if any)

This formula allows you to calculate the total amount you will pay for fennel after applying any discounts.

Example:

  • Weight of Fennel (§ W §): 10 kg
  • Price per Unit (§ P §): $5
  • Discount (§ D §): 10%

Total Cost:

§§ TC = 10 \times 5 \times (1 - \frac{10}{100}) = 10 \times 5 \times 0.9 = 45 \text{ USD} §§
