Two formulas are needed to calculate the answer:

[Energy (watt-hours)] = [Power usage rate (watts)]? x [Time (hours)]

and

[Power usage rate (watts)] = [Voltage (volts)] x [Current (amps)]?

What is better to run an appliance on 120 volts or 240 volts and what is the least cost to run.?

It is best to run the appliance at the voltage for which it was designed. Frequently Stoves, Clothes dryers, Air conditioners, Heaters, and a few other appliances with their own circuits run on 240. Most household appliances that are plugged in run on 120. Outside of Baltimore, Maryland, one subdivision heated houses with 480 volts. One man worked on his own heater. He was electrocuted. What he did would have caused a spark with 120 volts, not an electrocution. Higher voltage usually costs less to run if the appliance is designed for higher voltage.

What does power x time mean?

Power = energy / time Energy = power x time If you operate an electrical appliance for a while, then the amount of energy it used is (power it uses when it's turned on) times (length of time it's turned on). (power) x (time) is the amount of energy used. That's what you're billed for, and what you pay your local utility. Turn on a 1-KW appliance, and run it for 1 hour, it uses 1 kilowatt-hour of energy, and that's what you'll pay for.
