Let’s create a BMI Calculator with a quantity element.
The default height value will be 170 with a unit value in cm. The default weight value will be 60 with a unit value in kg. There will be a formula element to calculate the BMI.
That’s how it will look on the user’s page:
You can set up Multiply (cost per value) when you want the value a user inputs to multiply for the cost. For example, if the cargo service delivers packages from the USA to Europe at 25 USD/ kg. The values will multiply by 25 to calculate the fees for the delivery.
That's how it will look on the user's page
