How to calculate the total cost of sugar bags?

The total cost can be calculated using the following formula:

Total Cost (TC) is given by:

§§ TC = (N \times P) + D + \left(\frac{T}{100} \times (N \times P)\right) §§

where:

  • § TC § — total cost
  • § N § — number of bags
  • § P § — price per bag
  • § D § — delivery cost
  • § T § — tax percentage

This formula allows you to calculate the total amount you will spend when purchasing sugar bags, taking into account the price of the bags, delivery fees, and any applicable taxes.

Example:

  • Number of Bags (§ N §): 10
  • Price per Bag (§ P §): $12
  • Delivery Cost (§ D §): $5
  • Tax (§ T §): 10%

Total Cost:

§§ TC = (10 \times 12) + 5 + \left(\frac{10}{100} \times (10 \times 12)\right) = 120 + 5 + 12 = 137 \text{ USD} §§
