Estimate

Use the information you have found in the experience, and calculate the amount of water that is being spent with those activities.


1. How much water do you spend in one day? Write in liters and gallons.

Answer:
I spend in all my house, in one day 572999.96 ml so that would be 572.999 liters that is equal to 151.370 gallons.

I did it by:

Bath: 60499.98  ml
Teeth: 26499.999  ml
Toilet: 240000  ml
Hands: 20999.999  ml
Dishes: 225000  ml

All this answers I add them and give me 572999.96 ml so in liters it should be 572.999 liters and in gallons 151.370 gallons

  
2. How much water do you spend in one month? Write in liters and gallons.

Answer:
In one month I spend 17189998 ml and that would be 17189.97 liters and it is equal to 4541.1 gallons in my house.

I did it by multiplying the number of ml, liters, and gallons (question # 1) per day and then I multiply it by 30 that is the number of days that a month has. And that gave me the answer.

Conclude: Take a look at the general consumption of water in the energy-water bill that your family recieves on a monthly basis. Compare it with the consubtion of a single person in just the activities that you investigated.

Answer: 
In this month I spend in my family 999 cubic meters. So that would be aproximadately 166.5 cubic meters for each person in a month. In my investigation one person  spend aproximadately 756.85 gallons so that would be  2.86498 m³ for one person in one month.
