    Answer:

    [tex]5 \frac{9}{20} [/tex]

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If Tucson’s average rainfall is 10 1/4 inches and Yuma’s is 4 4/5 inches, then the difference will give us how much more rain, on the average,Tucson get than Yuma.

    [tex]10 \frac{1}{4} – 4 \frac{4}{5} [/tex]

    [tex] = \frac{41}{4} – \frac{24}{5} [/tex]

    We find LCM to get

    [tex] \frac{205 – 96}{20} [/tex]

    [tex] \frac{109}{20} = 5\frac{9}{20} [/tex]
