The total transaction fee is calculated by multiplying the amount of gas consumed by the transaction by the current gas price. Total Fee = Gas Used x Gas Price.

The gas price is typically denominated in Gwei (a small unit of Ether). The gas used is determined by the complexity of the smart contract execution or transaction.
