Which package gives the better price per unit?
Compare two package prices fairly by reducing both to a price per kilogram, litre, item or other shared unit.
Formula: A: €6.00 ÷ 750 = €0.0080; B: €8.00 ÷ 1,200 = €0.0067. The difference is €0.0013 per shared unit.

Why this calculation works
unit price = price ÷ quantity. The calculation above updates with your own values, so the answer is never a disconnected black box.
Worked example
€6 for 750 g is €0.008/g; €8 for 1,200 g is about €0.0067/g, so B is cheaper per gram.
Assumptions and edge cases
- Both quantities use the same unit.
- Quality and waste are not compared.
