Charges also depends on the number of instances. Please let me know if my understanding is correct. For example, If having 2 instances will cost me 10 dollars, then having 1 instances should cost me 5 dollars. Am I correct ?

App Service Plans are priced based on the size and number of instances you run, and they are billed on a per second basis. For your case on the S2 plan, a single instance will cost $0.20/hour.
Depending on the number of default instances and maximum number of instances, you will get charged accordingly.
