Electricity consumed= power×time
2 bulbs of 40 W used = 6hrs
Electricity consumed=2×40=80W
80×6=480=0.48 kWh
2 tubelights of 50W used= 8hrs
Electricity consumed=2×50=100W
100×8=800=0.8kWh
Tv of 120W used= 6 hrs
Electricity consumed=1×120=120W
120×6=720=0.72kWh
Electricity consumed in 30 days= (0.48+ 0.8+ 0.72) kWh×30
=2×30=60units
60 units are consumed in 30 days.
Price of unit is not given in your question, so to find the bill of 60units you can multiply the cost of 1 unit by 60.
For example, cost of 1 unit is ₹20
20×60=₹1200
So bill will be of ₹1200 when 60nits are consumed.
