If the average annual rainfall in Pochampalli is $850$ mm and $60$ of it falls during the June–September monsoon, how much rainfall (in mm) falls during the monsoon?

Step-by-step solution

1. Convert the percentage to a decimal: $60$.
2. Multiply the total rainfall by this decimal: $850\times 0.60=510$.
3. Thus, $510$ mm of rainfall falls during the monsoon.
