Question

900 wind turbines produce 800,500 kilowatts of energy per hour if a total of 32,725,550 kilowatts of energy is produced how much time did this take

Answer 1

`41\ hours`

Explanation:

we know that

Using proportion

`(1)/(800,500)(hour)/(kw)=(x)/(32,725,550)(hours)/(kw)\\ \\x=32,725,550/800,500\\ \\x=40.88\ hours`

Round to the nearest whole number

`40.88\ hours=41\ hours`
