How to calculate the total cost for one pint of sour cream?

To find out how much you will pay for one pint of sour cream, you can use the following formula:

Total Cost (C) is calculated as:

§§ C = P \times V §§

where:

  • § C § — total cost
  • § P § — price per pint
  • § V § — volume in pints (in this case, it is always 1)

This formula allows you to quickly determine the total cost based on the price you input.

Example:

If the price per pint (§ P §) is $2.50, then the total cost for one pint (§ C §) would be:

§§ C = 2.50 \times 1 = 2.50 §§
