Question

If $120.99 is charged for 654 units of electricity

Answer 1

Answer:

The cost of one unit of electricity is $0.185

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount charged = $120.99

Units of electricity used = 654

The cost of a unit of electricity can be determined by dividing the amount charged by the number of units used.

So that,

cost of one unit of electricity = $\frac{120.99}{654}$

                                    = 0.185

cost of one unit of electricity = $0.185

This implies that the cost of electricity used is charged at $0.185 per unit.

Thus for 654 units of electricity used, the cost would be;

654 x $0.185 = $120.99
