Solution

Power consumed by
5 bulbs = 5×100 = 500 W
2 fans = 2×60 = 120 W
2 A.C = 2×1.5×1000 = 3000 W

(a) Total power consumed per day = 3620 W

(b) Total power consumed in 30 days = 30×36201000 = 108.6 kw

(c) Electric energy is used for 5 h per day.
Total electrical energy consumed in 30 days = 108.6×5=543 kWh.

(d) Cost of electricity = Units used×cost of each unit = 3393.75.
