We can express the number of inches of rain in a ratio, 1 month366 inches. We need to find to find the number of hours, but first we need to find the number of days. We know there are 31 days in July, so we get 1 month366 inches×31 days1 month We know there are 24 hours in a day, so we get 1 month366 inches×31 days1 month×24 hours1 day And simplifying gets us 31×24 hours366 inches, which is A. Note that in the simplifying step, we noted that the month and day units cancel, leaving us with only inches per hour.
