Just wondering about leaving my refer running on propane for about 10 days does anyone have an idea about propane consumption. I hate to turn it off and on

Variables not mentioned by the OP: size of propane tank (20 lb? 30 lb? more?), whether said tank(s) are full or partly empty, size of refer, outside temperatures, inside RV temperatures. All have a large effect on the propane consumption rate, making any sort of useful answer difficult.
As someone mentioned, 12v electric is also crucial to the operation of that refer, so is the rig on shore power or battery only? and if the latter, is anything else on, how many batteries does he have, and what is their state of charge?
The REAL question of whether he can leave that rig/refer on for 10 days depends on the answers to all those OTHER questions.
What do all those variables have to do with propane consumption that is the question I asked. I have 6 house batteries all at full charge and 28 gallons of propane near full. Now can we get back to the question of consumption. And BTW what are the other questions ?
