Older models of toilets use 5.5 gallons of water per flush. Models made in the 1970s use 3.5 gallons per flush. The new low-flow models use 1.55 gallons per flush. Assume each person flushes the toilet an average of five times per day. Determine the amount of water used in a town with a population of 41,782 in 1 day for each type of toilet. How much water is saved using the low-flow model as opposed to the pre-1970s model?
