If you spend $0.12 per day on kilowatts, how much do you spend in one year?

$36.50
$43.80
$55.20
$39.90

The correct answer is: $43.80

To determine the total cost spent on kilowatts in one year, you need to calculate the total amount spent per day multiplied by the number of days in a year. Since there are 365 days in a year, you would perform the following calculation: First, multiply the daily expense by the number of days in a year: \[ 0.12 \text{ (dollars per day)} \times 365 \text{ (days)} = 43.80 \text{ (dollars)} \] This calculation gives you a total of $43.80 spent on kilowatts over the course of one year. This answer reflects the consistent daily expenditure multiplied by the total number of days in a year, demonstrating a clear method for calculating annual costs based on daily rates.
