Question

It cost $52 to use 800 kWh of electricity. How much will 650 kWh cost?

Answer 1

Hello!

$52 ..... 800kWh

$x ..... 650kWh

_____________

52/x = 800/650 <=>

<=> 52 × 650 = 800x <=>

<=> 33800 = 800x <=>

<=> 800x = 33800 <=>

<=> x = 33800/800 <=>

<=> x = 338/8 <=>

<=> x = 169/4 <=>

<=> x = 42,25$

Good luck! :)
