So, one trillion is 1 and twelve zeros, thus 2.4 trillion is 2 trillions and 400 billions or 24 followed by eleven zeros, because the "4" is using up a space.

now, 1 million is 1 and six zeros, thus 100 millions is 100 and six zeros or 1 and 8 zeros.

now, is 2.4 trillions in four months, thus 2.4trillion/4 will give us how many gallons in 1 month.

to find how many households, simply let's divide it by 100 millions

\bf \cfrac{\stackrel{\textit{2.4 trillions}}{24\times 10^{11}}}{4}\implies \cfrac{24}{4}\times 10^{11}\implies 6\times 10^{11}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{\stackrel{\textit{gallons per month}}{6\times 10^{11}}}{\stackrel{households}{1\times 10^8}}\implies \cfrac{6}{1}\times \cfrac{10^{11}}{10^8}\implies 6\times 10^{11}\times 10^{-8}
\\\\\\
6\times 10^{11-8}\implies 6\times 10^3\implies \stackrel{\textit{gallons per household}}{6000}

Answer:

This is not right at all. The answer is 4000

Step-by-step explanation:

You take 2,400,000,000,000/6 = 400,000,000,000

400,000,000,000/100,000,000 = 4,000
