About this calculator
Unit rate answers how much one unit costs. Divide total price by quantity: ₹240 for 6 notebooks is ₹40 per notebook.
Compare two packs by converting both to the same unit rate. The lower per-unit price is the better deal unless quality differs.
Enter total, quantity, and a unit label (kg, litre, item). The calculator shows price per unit and how many units you get per ₹1. For percentage discounts try [[percentage]]. For GST-inclusive totals use [[gst]].
