A house consist of four people. The reading on the water meter at the beginning of January was 0008945m³. On the last day of the month it was 008969m³

3.1 Calculate how many litres of watercwas used during the month. If 1 liters = 0,001m³.
3.2 Determine the average water usage in litres per person per dy for January.

1 answer

3.1 To calculate how many liters of water were used during the month, we need to find the difference between the two meter readings:

Final meter reading - Initial meter reading = 008969m³ - 0008945m³ = 008074m³

Since 1 liter = 0.001m³, we can convert the cubic meters to liters by multiplying by 1000:

008074m³ * 1000 = 8074 liters

Therefore, 8074 liters of water were used during the month.

3.2 To determine the average water usage in liters per person per day for January, we need to divide the total water usage by the number of people and the number of days in the month:

Total water usage = 8074 liters
Number of people = 4
Number of days in January = 31

Average water usage per person per day = Total water usage / (Number of people * Number of days)

Average water usage per person per day = 8074 liters / (4 * 31)

Average water usage per person per day = 8074 liters / 124

Average water usage per person per day ≈ 65.13 liters

Therefore, the average water usage in liters per person per day for January is approximately 65.13 liters.
