Answer :

1. What is asked? - The question asks for the amount of electricity consumed between the months of August and the following month based on the electric meter readings. 2. What are given? - The initial electric meter reading for August: 3411 kWh - The electric meter reading for the next month: 3619 kWh 3. What operation will be used? - To find the amount of electricity consumed, we need to subtract the initial reading from the reading for the next month. 4. What is the number sentence? - To calculate the electricity consumed, we use the following number sentence: Electricity consumed = Reading for the next month - Initial reading 5. What is the solution? - Electricity consumed = 3619 kWh - 3411 kWh = 208 kWh 6. What is the answer? - The amount of electricity consumed between the two months is 208 kWh. This indicates that 208 kilowatt-hours of electricity were used during that period.
