उत्तर

Power of bulb 1, P1 = 60 W
Duration that it was lit, t1= 4 h
Electric energy consumed by two bulbs, E1 = 2 x P1 x t1
                                                                     = 2 x 60 x 4
                                                                     = 480 Wh

Power of bulb 2, P2 = 100 W
Duration that it was lit, t2= 5 h
Electric energy consumed by three bulbs, E2= 3 x P2t2 = 3 x 100 x 5 = 1500 Wh

Total electric energy consumed in 30 days, E = 30 x (E1E2)
                                                                     E = 30 x (480 + 1500)
                                                                     E = 30 x 1980                                                      
                                                                     E = 59400 Wh
                                                                     E = 59.4 kWh
