Solution

Quantity of water supplies to Anand Nagar society every day $= 25, 03, 854 l$
There are $28$ days in the month of February $2017$ .
The water used by the society in the month of February $2017 = 25, 03, 854 \times 28$
$= 7, 01, 07, 688 l$
Hence, the water used by the society in the month of February $2017$ is $7, 01, 07, 688 l$
The average consumption of water of each family per month $= 1, 50, 000 l$
The total number of families in Anand Nagar $= 7, 01, 07, 688 \div 1, 50, 000$
$150000467 70107688600000 - - - - - - - - - 1010768900000 - - - - - - - 11076881050000 - - - - - - - - 57688$
