I know it seems like the The Verandah at Grandview Hills Apartments in Austin TX (Bassham Properties) water meter didn't move much, but let's do the math together. (Remember: This problem is over two years old.)
The Verandah at Grandview Hills Apartments in Austin TX. (Bassham Properties) Apt 2924 Water Meter:
Starting reading = 1006.626 US Gallons.
Ending Reading = 1006.708 US Gallons.
1006.708 - 1006.626 = .082 US Gallons.
The Verandah at Grandview Hills Apartments in Austin TX. (Bassham Properties) water meter moved from 1006.626 to 1006.708 (.082 US Gallons) in 6 minutes and 1 second. (0:00 to 6:01 = 361 seconds).
There are 2,592,000 seconds in 30 days (a short month). [(60*60*24*30) / 361] * .082 = 588.76 US Gallons per 30 days. The Laws of Math still apply at The Verandah at Grandview Hills Apartments in Austin TX. (Bassham Properties).
