Question

A light bulb consumes 15300 watt-hours in 4 days and 6 hours . How many watt-hours does it consume per day?

Answer 1

3,600

Explanation:

In the question, there is energy consumption and a rate but not in an easy way.

In order to find out how much watt-hours the light bulb consumes per day, the easiest way is to multiply by the hour to find out how much it uses in a day.

In 4 days and 6 hours there are 102 hours.

`4 * 24 = 96`

`96 + 6 = 102`The hours for 4 days...

`96 + 6 = 102`

4 days plus 6 hours. The total time...

Now make the watt-hours usage an hourly rate...

`15300 + 102 = 150`

150 watts/hour...

Take the hourly rate and multiply it by 24 (number of hours in a day) to find out how many watt-hours the lightbulb uses in a day...

`150 * 24 = 3600`

Answer 2

3600

Explanation:

It consumes 3600 watt hours per day. Steps are included below.

We know that there is 24 hours in a day so we times 24 by the consumes watt hours that is 15300. So 24 times 15300. After that we need to time 4 times 24+6 = the answer that is 3600. That how you get the answer.

Steps:

1: 24*15300/(4*24+6)=3600

Answer: 3600 watt hours per day

Hope this helps.
