Total listing price is divided by the canonical cartridge count extracted from the product title. razors is best compared by cartridge count, not by pack size or weight. A "12-pack of mega rolls" with 231 sheets per roll has the same useful unit (rolls) as a "6 double rolls" listing, even though the marketing labels are different. Cross-unit listings (for example a serving-count tub mixed in with weight-based tubs) are shown separately under "Other formats" so the price-per-cartridge ranking stays apples-to-apples.
