Question

If it has rained 276 mm in the last 3 days, how many cm of rain will fall in one
full week (7 days)? Assume that the rain continues to fall at the same rate.

Answer 1

3 into 92:276,7into 92:644,because it every day falls 92 mm

Answer 2

3 days = 276 mm ( Given)

Find 1 day:

3 days = 276 mm

1 day = 276 ÷ 3 = 92 mm

Find 7 days:

1 day = 92 mm

7 days = 92 x 7 = 644 mm

Convert 644mm to cm:

10 mm = 1 cm

644mm = 64.4 cm

Answer: There will be 64.4 cm of rain in a week.
