the average rain fall in cuba in the summer is 5.3 inches per month. if cuba gets 6.3 inches in june and 7.1 in july how much rain do they need in august to exceed their average

They need more than 2.5 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

average = 5.3

June: 6.3

July: 7.1

August: x

The average of the amounts for June, July, and August is

(6.3 + 7.1 + x)/3

To exceed the average, the average must be greater than 5.3.

(6.3 + 7.1 + x)/3 > 5.3

Multiply both sides by 3.

6.3 + 7.1 + x > 15.9

x + 13.4 > 15.9

Subtract 13.4 from both sides.

x > 2.5

They need more than 2.5 inches.
