Answer 1

Answer:

The cost of gas is £67.81

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The gas meter readings at the beginning and end of a period were: 8247 and 8631.

The unit used is: $8631-8247=384$

The cost of the gas is 11p for each unit.

Therefore, the cost is: $384\times 0.11=42.24$

Also there is a fixed charge of £25.57.

Hence, the cost of gas is $42.24+25.57=67.81$
