A toaster is just resisters, so using their waste heat to cook food. Incredibly inefficient.
An average dishwasher is 1200w if a load takes an hour, 1.2wh of work is needed. It’s less total wattage than the toaster, but uses more total energy to do its cycle of work.
My large microwave is 1500w, but average is around 1000w, so can do the same math for cooking your leftovers.
Energy is incredibly easy to calculate as Wattage, which is just a function of volts and amps. A higher amp but lower voltage appliance, will use the same watts in the end if all things are 1:1.
But that dishwasher needs those total W the entire time, just like the toaster. So it only needs 12 people to operate.
