Try measuring a different way, maybe with just cups
It raining in Alaska and raining in Ohio are independent events. One does not control the other or affect the other in any way.
For two independent events (let's call them A and B), the Probability of A and B both occurring is given by P(A and B) = P(B) x P(B).
For this problem, let A = rain in Ohio and B= rain in Alaska.
P(A and B) = P(A) x P(B)

<em>Set up a proportion.</em>
<em />
<em>75 / 125 = x/1300</em>
<em />
<em>125 10.4 = 1300</em>
<em />
<em>75 * 10.4 = 780</em>
