Need help working out prices of weights

Jelli

Hi,

If something is £10.99 per kg and it weighs 276g, how much would it cost me? Would it be £3.17 or 'around' £2.80?

Also, what would be 256g? Maybe close to £3.07 or around £2.58?

Thanks.

About £3.03 (£10.99 x O.276)

Thanks.

I don't know the exact size of the 250g item but a retailer charged me exactly £3.17 for 276g and £3.07 for 250-ish'g. Wasn't sure if I'd been overcharged for both.

How would I split £10.99 into each gram myself? It's a little confusing understanding the whole thing.

Open windows calculator, enter:

10.99 divided by 1000 = 0.01099

0.01099 pence per gram

Cheers, much appreciated.

surely that should be 0.01099 pounds per gram
Or 1.099 pence per gram.

You're correct, my maths has obviously gone down over the years!
