Question

- The water rate for Columbus Ohio

is $1.98 per 750 gallons of water.
What is the water bill for a resident
who used 27,000 gallons?

Answer 1

The answer would be $71.28 :)

Answer 2

Divide total amount used by the amount in the rate:

27,000 / 750 = 36

Multiply that number by the rate:

36 x 1.98 = 71.28

The bill is $71.28
