How to calculate the total price for one jar of salsa?

To determine the total price for salsa jars, you can use the following formula:

Total Price (TP) is calculated as:

§§ TP = P \times V \times N §§

where:

  • § TP § — total price for the jars
  • § P § — price per unit volume (in dollars per liter)
  • § V § — volume of one jar (in liters)
  • § N § — number of jars

This formula allows you to find out how much you will spend on salsa jars based on the price per liter, the volume of each jar, and the quantity you wish to purchase.

Example:

  • Price per Unit Volume (§ P §): $5
  • Jar Volume (§ V §): 0.5 liters
  • Number of Jars (§ N §): 3

Total Price:

§§ TP = 5 \times 0.5 \times 3 = 7.5 \text{ dollars} §§
