Question

In a recent year, wind machines in a country generated 183.1 billion kWh of electricity, enough to serve over 17 million households. The nation's total electricity production that year was 4,098 billion kWh. What percent of the total energy production was generated by wind machines

Answer 1

Answer:

The right answer is "4.4%".

Explanation:

Given:

Generated electricity,

= 183.1 billion kWh

Total electricity production,

= 4098 billion kWh

Now,

The wind energy percentage will be:

= $\frac{183.1}{4098}\times 100$

= $0.0446\times 100$

= $4.4$ %
