I not sure but I think you do
156.18-12.50=
and then I think you divide the answer by 0.16
A customers monthly bill was €156.18. Determine how many units of electricity the customer used in that month.
156.18-12.50=
and then I think you divide the answer by 0.16
Let's break down the calculations step by step:
1. Subtract the monthly standing charge from the total bill:
Total bill - Standing charge = €156.18 - €12.50 = €143.68
2. Divide the result by the cost per unit of electricity used:
€143.68 / €0.16 = 898 units
Therefore, the customer used 898 units of electricity in that month.
To calculate this on your own, you can use the formula:
Units = (Total bill - Standing charge) / Cost per unit of electricity used
This formula can be used to determine the number of units used for any given total bill and cost per unit of electricity used.
