📘 Interpreting Your Bill

1 CCF = 100 Cubic Feet
1 CCF ≈ 748 Gallons

If your bill says you used 5 CCF, you used 500 cubic feet of water.
Since each cubic foot contains about 7.48 gallons, 500 cubic feet equals roughly 3,740 gallons.

🧠 Why CCF?

Utility companies use CCF because measuring in gallons would result in huge numbers on the meter.

Example: A family might use 8,000 gallons a month.
In CCF, that's just ~10.7 units. It is much easier to read and bill.

✍️ Worked Example

Bill Reading: 12 CCF

Step 1: Convert to Cubic Feet -> 12 × 100 = 1,200 ft³.

Step 2: Convert to Gallons -> 1,200 × 7.48 = 8,976 Gallons.

📊 Real-World Applications

  • Leak Detection: A usage of 1 CCF overnight while everyone is asleep indicates a major leak (748 gallons!).
  • Pool Filling: Estimating cost to fill a pool (often 15,000+ gallons) using municipal water rates.
  • Gardening: Calculating irrigation volume.

✅ Key Takeaways

  • "C" is the Roman numeral for 100.
  • CCF is the standard billing unit for municipal water.
  • 1 CCF is roughly equal to 15 standard bathtubs of water (50 gallons each).
