An air conditioner running for eight hours would consume 7.2 kilowatts. How many kilowatts would the air conditioner consume if it was used for 6 hours a day for 5 days?
How many kilowatts does the air conditioner consume per hour? ** The air conditioner consumes 7.2/8 = <<7.2/8=0.9>>0.9 kilowatt per hour.
How many kilowatts does the air conditioner consume in 6 hours? ** So, in 6 hours, it will consume 0.9 kilowatts per hour * 6 hours = <<0.9*6=5.4>>5.4 kilowatts.
How many kilowatts does the air conditioner consume in 5 days? ** In 5 days, its total consumption is 5.4 kilowatts * 5 = <<5.4*5=27>>27 kilowatts.
