Hello my dear learners! How are you today? In this lesson we are going to learn about Reading and
Interpreting Electric and Water Meter consumption. You will also learn how to record, interpret and write the
electric and water meter reading.
Electricity is one of the most important forms of energy which is made available in every home, office,
school, and factory. It is measured by the watt-hour when it passes through an electric meter. Because
the watt is a small unit, we use the kilowatt-hour to measure large quantities of electricity. The amount of
electricity consumed is expressed in kilowatt-hour (kWh).
To read your meter, read the dials from left to right. The first dial turns clockwise. The second dial turns
counterclockwise. The third dial turns clockwise, the fourth dial turns counterclockwise, and the fifth dial turns
clockwise.
Reading Electric Meter
https://www.google.com/search?q=electric+meter+reading source
Example 1: Cristina was asked by her father to read their electric meter. The dials of the electric meter looked
this way:
Man cannot live without water. In towns and cities where water runs through pipes, every drop of water
from the faucet is measured through the water meter. The amount of water consumed is expressed in cubic
meters (m³)
When reading water meters. The rules of reading a water meter with dials are similar to the way an electric
meter is being read.
Example 1: Read and interpret the dials on the meter below. The rightmost dial has the highest value.
T To get the exact meter reading, start from right to left or the highest
n numbered dial (clockwise).
So, the water meter shows 3518 m³.
(Source: 21 st Century MATHletes Textbook, page 305)
To compute for water or electric meter consumption for a particular period of time, simply subtract the
previous reading from the present reading
Problem 1:
Mr. Matipid is computing his monthly electrical consumption. Based on his electric bill, last month he was
able to consume 00124 kWh. When he checked his digital electric meter, the reading was 00197 kWh. How
many kilowatt-hours did Mr. Matipid consume this month?
The amount of electricity used by an appliance is equal to the product of the electric power of the
appliance and the time.
Electric consumption= Number of watts x Time
1000
Problem 2:
How much electricity will be consumed by a 50-watt light bulb that was turned on for eight hours?
Electric consumption = 50 watts x 8 hours = 400 =0.4 kWh
1000 1000
Problem 3:
The Masinop Family made a record of their 3-month water consumption. During the same period during the
COVID-19 Pandemic, the initial reading is 873 m³ and the meter read as:
March: 1020 April: 1342 May: 1521
a. In what month did they use the most water?
b. How many cubic meters of water did they use for 3 months?
c. Solve for the average monthly consumption in cubic meters.
To find the month in which they consumed the most water, find the amount of water they consumed every
month by subtracting the initial reading from the first month’s reading, then the previous month’s reading from
the current reading and so on. Having an initial reading , so the water consumption for each month is:
Learning Task 2: Read, analyze and solve the given problem below on a sheet of paper.
In a classroom there are five 20-watt fluorescent lamps and four 50-watt electric fans operating for 10
hours in a regular school day.
1. How many kilowatt-hours are consumed by the five 20-watt fluorescent lamps each school day?
2. How many kilowatt-hours are consumed by the four 50-watt electric fans each school day?
3. How many kilowatt-hours are consumed for a day?
4. How many kilowatt-hours are consumed for 3 days?
5. How many kilowatt-hours are consumed in one school week?
A. Assimilation (Time Frame: Day 4 )
Learning Task 3: Copy the table below on a sheet of paper. Study the table and compute the kWh used, and
answer the questions below.
1. Which household consumed the most? The least?
2. Which two households consumed the same kWh?
3. As a member of the household, how can you lower
your Electric bill?
4. Why is it important to use electricity wisely?
Learning Task 4:
1. Give the reading of each meter: March ___kWh April April
__kWh
2. What is the electric consumption?
3. If the cost of electricity is Php 5.50 per kWh, how much did the electricity cost for April?
Learning Task 5: Read, analyze and solve the given problems below on a sheet of paper.
1. Ms. Chelsea’s water meter read 1121 last month. This month, it read 1432. If a cubic meter of water costs
Php 19.40, how much will he pay for the water consumption this month?
2. Arnold’s electric meter read 22526 last month. This month, it read 22030. If a kWh cost Php 6.20, how
much will he pay for electricity this month?
Graphs help us to compare amounts or see trends. One of these graphs is the pie graph.
A pie graph is a pictorial representation of data relative to a whole. It is a circular graph which each portion in
the circle represents an element of the collected data. The pie represents the composition of various elements in
a whole. The total value of the pie chart is always 100% of the given data. Pie graphs are used to show the
percentage of a quantity in each of the several categories. It can also be used to easily visualize the ratio of one
category to another.
To draw a pie graph:
1. Find the angle measure for each section.
2. Draw a circle using a compass.
3. Use the protractor to draw each angle. Then label each section.
4. Write a title for the graph.
The formula to determine the angle of a sector in a circle graph is
Example: In a school, there are 750 students in Year 1, 420 students in year 2 and 630 students in year 3. Draw a
pie graph to represent the number of students in these groups.
Solutions:
750
Year 1: size of angle = x 360° = 150°
1800
420
Year 2: size of angle = 1800x 360° = 84°
630
Year 3: size of angle = x 360° = 126°
1800
Draw the circle following the measure in each sector. Label each sector in the pie
chart. Don’t forget to write the title “Groups of Students in a School”
If the value of the component is expressed in percentage,
then the center angle corresponding to component is given by

According to Mang Tani, a resident meteorologist, the weather today will be rainy because of the ITCZ. The
forecast says that there is a 75% chance of rain. Does it mean that there is a great chance that it will rain
today? In the question above, the chance that it will rain today is 75%. To answer the question above, we
need to know the concept of probability. Look at the number line below. 75 % = 0.75
We can say that the event that it will rain today is likely to happen, because based on the number line, 0.75
or 75% is closer to 1 or 100%.
Study the following examples.
Example 1: Use impossible, most unlikely, as unlikely, as likely, most likely, and certain to describe the likelihood or
probability of each of the following statements.
a.) It will snow tomorrow. - Philippines is a tropical country, it is impossible to snow.
b.) The likelihood that my name will be selected twice from the fishbowl with 15 names of my classmates is
about 13%.
Since the probability is much closer to 0% it is most unlikely that my name will be chosen. (but not
impossible)
c.) The weather forecaster says there is 50% chance of rain today. – The 50% means that the chance of rain
is as likely as it is unlikely. It does not mean that it will rain nor will not rain today.
d.) The sports analyst says that Manny Pacquiao has 75% chance of winning his fight. – This mean that Manny
is most likely to win his fight, because 75% is closer to 100%.
e.) The sun will rise tomorrow. – The sun rises everyday, so it is certain to happen.
Example 2 A toss coin is done in a badminton game to determine which player, A or B, will have the first
opportunity to do the serve. When a coin is tossed, there are two possible outcomes: (head or tails). If the
umpire flipped the coin, it is a likely as unlikely to land as head or tail. There is a 50% chance that Player A
or Player B will be the first to serve.

IV. LEARNING PHASES AND LEARNING ACTIVITIES
Example 3 There are 1 yellow, 2 blue, and 2 gray cubes in a box. Without looking, what is the likelihood of picking
a yellow cube out of the box?
There are total of 5 cubes inside the box (I yellow+2 blue+2 green= 5 total). This
is represented as the denominator. The numerator tells us how many yellow
cube is in the box which is 1. The chance of picking a yellow cube is 1/5 (1 out
of 5) or 20 %. So, it is unlikely to pick yellow out of the box.
Example 4 Look at the picker wheel at the side. Write and describe the probability of landing on:
a.1 b. 3 or 5 c. even number d. 7
Solutions: It can land on 6 different regions numbered 1 to 6.
a. The chance of landing on 1 is 1 out of 6 or 1/6 or 16.67%, so it is more unlikely
to happen that the spinner will land on 1.
b. For the spinner to land on either 3 or 5 is unlikely to happen. The chance is 2
out of 6 or 1/3 or 33.33%.
c. There are three even numbers (2,4,6) on the spinner. The probability of landing MS WORD CHARTS
on one of these numbers is 3/6 or ½ or 50%. Therefore, we can describe the probability as equally likely as
unlikely.
d. It is impossible for the spinner to land on 7 because there is no 7 on the spinner.
Therefore, the probability of this event to happen is 0%, or impossible to happen.

Hi everyone! This will be the last lesson for the fourth quarter. Hope you are all still eager to learn more.
Now our country is starting to implement the vaccination against covid-19. Do you know how effective covid
vaccines are? According to WHO (World Health Organization) Pfizer BioNTech vaccine against COVID-19 has an
efficacy of 95% against symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection. Does it mean that getting a vaccine will save you from
the virus?
To answer the question, you need to know the concept of probability. According to the data above the
effectiveness of Pfizer BioNTech vaccine is 95%. Using a number line from 0 to 1, we locate 95%
0.95
The chance that something will happen is called Probability. It is used to describe how likely or unlikely
something will happen. Probability may be given in fraction, decimal or percent. The value of probability ranges
from 0 to 1 (0 means the event is impossible to happen, while 1 means the event is certain to happen.
The event is unlikely to happen when its probability is closer to 0, like winning a jackpot in a lottery where
you only have one in a million chance of winning. The event that is most likely to happen is closer to 1.
Example 1: There are colored small cubes inside a box. There are 4 blue, 2 yellow, 3 red and 1 green small cubes.

When we use a formula to find the probability of an event, we are finding the theoretical probability.
Y
Theoretical probability of an event is the number of ways that an event can occur divided by the total number
of outcomes.

𝑇ℎ𝑒𝑜𝑟𝑒𝑡𝑖𝑐𝑎𝑙 𝑃𝑟𝑜𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑖𝑙𝑖𝑡𝑦 =
𝑛𝑢𝑚𝑏𝑒𝑟 𝑜𝑓 𝑝𝑜𝑠𝑠𝑖𝑏𝑙𝑒 𝑜𝑢𝑡𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑠
In our example the number of favorable outcomes is 2 since there are 2 yellow cubes and the
number of possible outcomes is 10 since there are total of 10 cubes inside the box.

We can also find the probability of an event by doing an experiment. When we do this, we are
finding experimental probability. Experimental probability of an event is the ratio of the number of times
an event occur to the total number of trials or times the activity is performed.
A die has 6 faces, with dots numbered 1-6. Each number is equally
likely to occur

Example 3: Arkin is tossing a coin. He tossed the coin 50 times. It landed on tails 38 times. Find the probability of
landing on heads.
Since tails landed 38 times, therefore heads landed 12 times.
Learning Task 4: Two coins are tossed at the same time for 20 times. Below are the results of the tossing of coins.
