Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
You have rainfall readings of 15 mm, 22 mm, 10 mm, and 25 mm from four different gauges. If you were to use the Arithmetic Mean Method alone, would you be misled if one gauge showed an unusually high reading? Explain.
💡 Hint: Think about how adding an extreme value affects averages.
Question 2
