Answer: 2 inches, 3 inches, or 3.125 and 2.083


Explanations:
The simplest way is to take 20% of the 2.5 inches and go that much above & below 2.5 inches.

2.5 x 20% = 2.5 x 0.20 = 0.5

So 2.5 - 0.5 = 2 inches was predicted
And 2.5 + 0.5 = 3 inches was predicted.

The more complicated way is to see number + 20% of that number = 2.5, and what number - 20% = 2.5.

Which solution sounds more like what you’re doing in class right now?

If it’s the more complicated way:

0.8x = 2.5 (80% of the predicted rain value equals 2.5)
x = 3.125 inches was predicted

1.2x = 2.5 (120% of the predicted rain value equals 2.5)
x = 2.083 inches was predicted

Sorry, this is probably confusing. Let me know what questions you have.
