Question

An average tub bath uses 8 gallons of water and an average shower uses 6 gallons .to provide baths for 60 people how much more water will be needed if tubs are used instead of showers

Answer 1

Hello!

Assuming that each person gets one tub, each bathtub needs 2 more gallons than a shower for one person. We can multiply this two by 60 to get our answer.

60(2)=120

Therefore, 120 more gallons will be needed (so be efficient and use showers).

I hope this helps!
