A light bulb consumes 1440 Watt hours per day.. how long does it take to consume 6840 watt- hours

4 days and 18 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

1440 Watt hours = 1 day

6840 Watt hours = x

Cross multiply.

1440*x = 6840*1

1440x = 6840

Divide both sides by 1440.

1440x/1440 = 6840/1440

x = 4.75 days

4.75 days is 4 days and 3/4 of a day; because 3/4 = 0.75

We have to find 3/4 of 1 day.

1 day is 24 hours.

3/4* 24

Divide 24 by 4.

3*6 = 18

So, 18 hours.

Therefore a light bulb consumes 6840 Watt hours in 4 days and 18 hours.
