Question

Find a average daily rainfall for a 30 days month if the total rainfall during that period was 16.8 inches.

Answer 1

Average = 0.56 inches

Solution:

Given data: Total rainfall = 16.8 inches

Total number of days for a month = 30

To find the average of the rainfall.

Formula for average:

$\text {Average}=\frac{\text {Sum of the observations}}{\text {Total number of observations}}$

$\text {Average}=\frac{16.8}{30}$

            = 0.56 inches

Average = 0.56 inches

Hence, average of daily rainfall is 0.56 inches.
