The total amount of rainfall is the sum of the rainfall on each day
The total amount of rainfall is [tex]3\frac 38[/tex] inches
How to determine the total amount of rainfall
From the dot plot, we have the following frequency table
Rainfall Frequency
0 4
1/8 5
1/4 1
3/8 2
1/2 1
1 1/4 1
So, the total amount of rainfall is:
[tex]Total = 0 * 4 + \frac 18 * 5 + \frac 14 * 1 + \frac 38 * 2 + \frac 12 * 1 + 1\frac 14 * 1[/tex]
Evaluate the sum
[tex]Total = 3\frac 38[/tex]
Hence, the total amount of rainfall is [tex]3\frac 38[/tex] inches
