Question

Find out how much water is wasted in a day?

1. In a week?
2. In a month?
3. In a year?

Answer 1

In one hour 1 L water is wasted

So, in 1 day or 24 hours water wasted = 1 L × 24 = 24 L.

1. In one day 24 L of water is wasted
   So, in one week or 7 days
   = 24 L × 7
   = 168 L.
2. In one day 24 L of water is wasted
   Therefore, in a month which has 30 days, water wasted
   = 24 L × 30
   = 720 L.
3. In one month 720 L of water is wasted
   Therefore in one year, which has 12 months of water wasted
   = 720 L × 12
   = 8640 L.
