Question

The weekly rainfall data is shown in the image.

Orange days have more rainfall than green days.

1 drop \( =4 \) inches of rain \begin{tabular}{|c|c|} \hline Weekdays & Inches of Rainfall \\ \hline Monday & \\ \hline Tuesday & Wednesday \\ \hline Thursday & \\ \hline Friday & \\ \hline Saturday & \\ \hline Sunday & \\ \hline \end{tabular}

• A. Yellow days > Red days
• B. Yellow days < Red days

Answer 1

The correct option is A Yellow days > Red days

Given: 1 drop = 4 inches of rain

Monday = $4\times 10=40inches$
Tuesday = $4\times 6=24inches$
Wednesday = $4\times 8=32inches$
Thursday = $4\times 11=44inches$
Friday = $4\times 7=28inches$
Saturday = $4\times 4=16inches$
Sunday = $4\times 9=36inches$

$\therefore$ Total Rainfall on Orange days =$40+32+28+36=136inches$
Total Rainfall on Green days =$24+44+16=84inches$

Therefore, Yellow days rainfall > Rainfall on Green days
