Answer: The correct answer is Option E.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a kitchen appliance uses 450 watts per day and to calculate the power it consumed in 30 days in kilowatts hours, we use the following conversion:

1 day = 24 hours

So, 30 days = 30 × 24

1 kilowatts = 1000 watts

Calculating the power consumed in kilowatts hours, we get:


\Rightarrow ((450W)/(1day))* 30days * 24hours\\\\\Rightarrow 324000Watts=320kW

Hence, the correct answer is Option E.
