1800/150,000=X/92,000
150,000X=1800*92,000
150,000X=165,600,000
X=165,000,000/150,000
X=1,104 TAXES OWED ON THE $92,000 HOME.
----------------------------------------------------
.16*800=128 IS THE UTILITY BILL PER MONTH.
.25*128=32*12=$384 IS THE SAVINGS FROM A 25% REDUCTION OVER ONE YEAR.
------------------------------------------------------
CONVERTING THESE INCH MEASUREMENTS TO FEET WE GET:
24IN=2FT.
36IN=3FT.
12IN=1FT.
2*3*1=6 FT^3 IS THE SPACE IN THIS BOX.
