Answer:

THE LEEWARD SIDE OF A MOUNTAIN GETS LESS RAIN BECAUSE IT IS SITUATED TO THE NORTH OF MOUNTAIN AND WHEN THE WATER VAPOUR MOVES TOWARDS THESE MOUNTAIN THESE MOUNTAINS OBSTRUCT THE VAPOUR AND IT STARTS MOVING UPWARD ALONG THE SLOPE OF THE MOUNTAIN AMD THEREFORE THE LEEWARD SIDE RECEIVES LESS RAINFALL.

Contrary to windward side, leeward side gets less rainfall because by the time the wind reaches that place, it becomes hot and dry ,containing very low moisture. The moisture laden winds srike at the windward side and hence cause major rainfall there.
