Many newer efficient dishwashers use about 4 gallons of water per load. If an average family runs their dishwater everyday, how many gallons of water will they use in a year?

Assuming the dishwasher is ran once a day, and there are 365 days in a year, the total gallons used would be

= 4(365) \\ = 1460
