Given:
Volume consumed by Mrs. Santos = 8.976 m³
To find:
the cost of 8.976 m³ if 1 m³ cost Php 45.00
let the cost of 8.976 m³ = y
1 m³ = Php 45
8.976 m³ = y
cross multiply:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 1(y)\text{ = 45\lparen8.976\rparen} \\ \\ y\text{ = 403.92} \\ \\ The\text{ cost of 8.976m}^3\text{ is 403.92 Php} \end{gathered}[/tex]
