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

Solution:

Let's use the concept of the unitary method.

According to the given question, the measure of rain in 3 days is 276 mm.

The measure of rain in one day = 276 / 3 = 92 mm

Therefore, the measure of rain in one week that is 7 days = 92 × 7 = 644 mm

To change from mm to cm, we need to divide by 644 by 10 since, 1 cm = 10 mm

= 644 / 10

= 64.4 cm

Thus, the measure of rain in one week that is 7 days, will be 64.4 cm.
