Rate Per Km Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the rate per km is:

\[ RKM = \frac{C}{D} \]

Where:

$RKM$ is the Rate Per Km (\$/km)
$C$ is the total cost (\$)
$D$ is the total distance (km)

What is Rate Per Km?

The rate per km refers to the cost per kilometer traveled. It is calculated by dividing the total cost by the total distance in kilometers. This metric is useful for budgeting and cost analysis in transportation and logistics.

Example Calculations

Example 1:

Total Cost (C): $500
Total Distance (D): 100 km

Using the formula:

\[ RKM = \frac{500}{100} = 5 \text{ \$/km} \]

Example 2:

Total Cost (C): $750
Total Distance (D): 150 km

Using the formula:

\[ RKM = \frac{750}{150} = 5 \text{ \$/km} \]
