Luke is organising a camping trip for the youth club. He is looking at the temperature and rainfall charts for Brighton and Newquay. What is the probability of it raining in July in Brighton? Give your answer as a fraction.

The answer is 15.6/31 or 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The data in the question is sufficient to find an answer for it.

1. I look at the temperature and rainfall chart for Brighton, United Kingdom.

2. Check for rainy season and dry season.

3. The rainy season lasts approximately 5 months while the dry season (which still has some rainfall) lasts approximately 7 months. All together, 12 months of the calendar year.

4. July happens to fall within the dry season. The temperature and rainfall statistics are observed.

The number of rainfall days is 15.6 and we know there are 31 days in July.

If the approximate number of days it rains in Brighton, in July, is 15.6 then the probability of rainfall in the month is 15.6/31 which is = 0.503 or 0.5

Therefore, there's a 50% chance of having rainfall in Brighton, on any day in the month of July.

In fraction, 0.5 = 1/2
