1. What is Price Per 100g?

Price per 100g is a standardized measurement that allows consumers to compare the cost of products regardless of their packaging size. It helps identify the best value for money when shopping.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the following simple formula:

Where:

• Total Price — The full price of the product in your local currency
• Weight in Grams — The net weight of the product in grams

Explanation: This calculation normalizes prices to a standard 100g unit, making it easy to compare products of different sizes and prices.

3. Importance of Price Comparison

Details: Calculating price per 100g helps consumers make informed purchasing decisions, especially when comparing similar products in different package sizes or between different brands.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the total price of the product and its weight in grams. The calculator will compute the standardized price per 100g. Both values must be greater than zero.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Why use price per 100g instead of just comparing package prices?
A: Package prices can be misleading as they don't account for different quantities. Price per 100g provides a fair, standardized comparison.

Q2: Can I use this for liquids measured in milliliters?
A: Yes, for most liquids 1ml ≈ 1g (especially water-based products), so you can use ml measurements directly.

Q3: Should I always choose the product with the lowest price per 100g?
A: Not necessarily - consider quality, brand preference, and whether you'll use the full quantity before it expires.

Q4: How accurate does the weight measurement need to be?
A: For best results, use the exact net weight listed on the packaging. Small variations can affect the calculation.

Q5: Can I calculate price per other units (like per kg)?
A: Yes, price per kg would be (Total Price / Weight in kg) or (Price per 100g × 10).
