According to the information given in the exercise, you need to use a 30 day month and her average monthly electricity usage is:


975kWh

Therefore, in order to calcualte her average daily usage, you need to divide her average monthly electricity usage by 30:


DailyUsage=(975kWh)/(30)=32.5kWh

Knowing that there are 12 months in 1 year, you can find her annual electricity usage as following:


AnualUsage=(975kWh)(12)=11,700kWh

The answer is:


\begin{gathered} DailyUsage=32.5kWh \\ AnualUsage=11,700kWh \end{gathered}
