Answers
Answer:
(a) The average rainfall per month during these three months(June, July and August) = 50 cm
(b) The total rainfall during the entire year 2014 = 276 cm
(c) The average rainfall per month during the other 9 months = 75.33 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data;
The average rainfall per month in the year 2014 = 23 cm
The total rainfall during the months June, July and August = 150 cm
(a) The average rainfall per month during these three months(June, July and August).
Total rainfall in these three months / Number of months
= 150/3
= 50 cm
(b) The total rainfall during the entire year 2014
= The average rainfall per month throughout the year x Number of months
= 23 x 12
= 276 cm
(c) The average rainfall per month during the other 9 months:
The total rainfall in the other 9 months = Total rainfall throughout the year - Total rainfall for 3 months(June, July, August)
= 276 - 50
= 226 cm
The average rainfall per month during the other 9 months = The total rainfall during the 9 months / Number of months
= 226/9
= 75.33 cm
