$319.9999664

Explanation:

Electric consumption per month =

6,896,551 Btu's

Cost of electricity per kWh =$0.16

1 Btu = 0.00029 kWh

6,896,551 BTU = 6,896,551 * 0.00029kWh

6,896,551 BTU = 1,999.99979 kWh

1 kWh costs $0.16

1,999.99979 kWh = 1,999.99979 * 0.16

= $319.9999664

Electric bill = $319.9999664
