Answer:

$86.40

Explanation:

The house Trevor's family lives in has 6 people (including Trevor) and 3 bathrooms. In the past month, each person showered for an average of 480 minutes and used an average 72 liters of shower water (over the entire month). Water costs 0.20 dollars per liter.

How much money did Trevor's family spend, in total, on shower water in the past month?

Total people in Trevor's family = 6

Number of bathrooms = 3

Time each person spent to shower = 480 minutes

Quantity of water each person use per month = 72 liters

Cost of water per liter = $0.20

Total amount spent on shower water = Total people in Trevor's family × Quantity of water each person use per month × Cost of water per liter

= 6 × 72 × 0.20

= $86.40

Total amount spent on shower water = $86.40
