The total water usage for a city is 500,000 gallons each day. Of that total, 19% is for personal use and 42% is for industrial use. How much more water is used for personal use than for industrial purposes

Respuesta :

Ok. So we are going to multiply 500,000 and .19

Personal use: 500,000*.19=95,000

Industrial use: 500,000*.42=210,000

In this work, it shows that there is more used for industrial use than for personal use.

But none the less. We are going to subtract this. 210,000-95,000=115,000. 115,000 more gallons are used for industrial use than for personal use.
