Answer 2

3.6 inches

Let x inches is the average monthly rainfall in a town.

Then total rainfall in a year = average monthly rainfall × months

= 12x

Since average annual rainfall for the town has been given as 43.2 inches

x =
`(43.2)/(12)`

= 3.6 inches.

Therefore, average monthly rainfall for the town will be 3.6 inches.
