So what I would do is first multiply the mean by 4 and that is the total u need, 146.5, to have a mean of 36 and 5/8. Next I add the lengths given, which is 110.625, and then I would subtract it from 146.5 which is 35.875 which is 35 and 7/8. You can also check the answer by finding the mean of the 4 numbers and determining if it comes out to 36 and 5/8. The answer is C. Hope this helps!
Answer:
10^-1*2.65
Step-by-step explanation:
two hundred sixty-five thousandths= 0.265
We need a number between 1 and 10, to do the multiplication in standard form, so 0.265 turns into 2.65.
Because 2.65 becomes, smaller we use a negative power. We only move the decimal place once to the left, so we would multiply 2.65 by 10^1.
10^-1*2.65=0.265
Since there are 12 months in there year and there have already been 3 months there are 9 left
we need to multiply 4.25 by 9 and then add the first 15 inchess
4.25 times 9 = 38.25+15 = 53.25
Florida will recieve 53.25 inches of rain
I hope I've helped!
