Okay, really I just need to know if this is going to be division, multiplication, subtraction or addition.
Damon's town received 12.3 inches of rain during a 24-hour period. First, estimate the amount of rain that fell per hour. Then, find the exact amount rounded to the nearest hundredth.
Rain per hour is more granular than rain per day and will therefore require division.
Thank you!
You're welcome.
To estimate the amount of rain that fell per hour, you need to divide the total amount of rain (12.3 inches) by the number of hours in a day (24 hours).
To find the exact amount rounded to the nearest hundredth, you will divide the total amount of rain (12.3 inches) by the number of hours in a day (24 hours) using division.
So, to get the answer, you would use division.
