Question

If a recipe calls for 180 grams of carrots, and the EP unit cost is $2.50 per kg, what is the ingredient cost of carrots? Remember to round your answer to the nearest cent.

Answer 1

$ 0.45

Explanation:

Convert 180 grams to kilograms:

180 grams = 0.18 kilograms (since 1 kilogram = 1000 grams).

Calculate the cost by multiplying the amount in kilograms by the cost per kilogram:

Cost = 0.18 kg × $2.50/kg = $0.45
