Solving

step 1: list all the ingredients, market price and the quantity needed

Ingredients | Market price (per quantity)

• rice 48.00php per kg

• water 25.00php per gallon

• talong 10.00php per piece

Quantity needed in the recipe

• 2 & ½ kg

• ½ gallon

• 3 pcs

Solving

step 2: calculate the price of the item based on the quantity you needed

price:

» rice

• 48 × 2 = 96

• 96 + 24 = 120

» water

• 25 ÷ 2 = 12.5

» talong

• 10 × 3 = 30
