On what factors does rainfall at a place depend on?

Solution
The amount of rainfall depends on the location of a place, i.e. whether it is located near the coast or in the interior and whether it is on the windward side (wet side) or the leeward side (dry side). The direction of the mountain ranges is also of great significance.
