Try something like

I suspect that should be MAX, not MIN.

If I say, for example, that the charge is 30 cents per page (A4*A5)
"with a minimum of $5", it means "at least $5". Ergo, for 10 pages,
the charge is $5, not $3 (10*0.30); but for 100 pages, the charge is
$30 (100*0.30), not $5. So I want the maximum of A4*A5 and 5.

No telling if that's what the OP wants, though. English (any natural
language) is ambiguous. People should provide a complete numerical
example.
