Answer 1

A. 1974 litres.

Explanation:

To calculate the total water usage in a week, we need to multiply the average daily water usage per house by the number of houses and the number of days in a week (7).

Average daily water usage per house is given as 47 litres.

Total water usage in a week = Average daily water usage per house * Number of houses * Number of days in a week

Plugging in the given values, we get:

Total water usage in a week = 47 litres * 6 houses * 7 days

Total water usage in a week = 1974 litres

Therefore, the correct answer is option A. 1974 litres.
