discrete
If, for example, the rainfall is recorded once every week for a whole year, and the recorded results added together, the average would be the total divided by the number of weeks in a year. This will give the average amount of rain that fell during the whole of the year.
There is an average of 30-31 days per month. Occasionally, there are 29 days in a month. This usually occurs in the month of February.
125.
Add the temperatures of all the days in the month. Divide the total by the number of days in the month. The result is your mean temperature.
No, the question "How many days are in March?" is not a statistical question. It has a definitive answer: March always has 31 days. Statistical questions typically involve variability and require data collection or analysis to answer, such as asking about the average number of days in a month across different years or contexts.
Either fog occurs on a day, or it does not. Therefore it is a discrete value.
No, the amount of rain in city B in April is not a discrete variable; it is a continuous variable. Continuous variables can take on any value within a given range, and rainfall can vary in infinitesimal amounts. In contrast, discrete variables represent countable quantities, such as the number of days it rained.
The Cherrapunji region in Meghalaya, India, holds the world record for the longest period of continuous rainfall. From August 1860 to August 1861, Cherrapunji received rainfall for 366 consecutive days.
To find the average rainfall per day in May, divide the total rainfall by the number of days in May. Since May has 31 days, the average rainfall per day would be 10 inches / 31 days ≈ 0.32 inches per day.
Well, that's a tough one, hmm, so that would be 2 mm avg. per day if June has 30 days in it. Idiot.
Hilo on the Big Island of Hawaii is known for its frequent rainfall, averaging 275 days of rain per year. It experiences a unique microclimate due to its location on the windward side of the island, where moisture-laden trade winds bring continuous rainfall.

Discrete - Each recorded data has a particular whole value e.g. Number of pencils in pencil cases, Number of correct answers in a test Continuous - The recorded data can have any value in a given range e.g. Height of students, Time taken to run 100m

The average rainfall in the amazon rainforest is 347 days a year
Average rainfall is typically measured using a rain gauge, a container designed to collect and measure the amount of precipitation that falls over a specific period of time. The total amount of rainfall collected in the rain gauge is then divided by the number of days in the period to determine the average daily rainfall.
It is about 30 days
