Answer:

25.0701 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find  2  3/8%  of 25.68 and then subtract that number from 25.68 to get this years' rainfall amount.

Firstly, doing long division, we will get:

3/8 = 0.375

So, 2  3/8 = 2.375%

That in decimal is [divide by 100]:

2.375% = 0.02375

Now finding 2  3/8th% of 25.68:

25.68 * 0.02375 = 0.6099

So decrease is 0.6099 inches

This years' amount = 25.68 - 0.6099 = 25.0701 inches
