Question

If it has rained 276 mm in the last 3 days, how many cm of rain will fall in one full week (7 days)? Assume that the rain continues to fall at the same rate.

Answer 1

Measure of rain in 3 days = 276 mm

Measure of rain in 1 day = `276/3= 92` mm

Therefore, measure of rain in 7 days = 92 × 7 = 644 mm
