Explanation:

Step1: Identify the average rainfall in Reno

The average rainfall in Reno in August is 0.19 mm.

Step2: Calculate total rainfall after 12 months

Multiply the average monthly rainfall by 12. So, \(0.19\times12 = 2.28\) mm.

Step1: List the amounts of rainfall

The amounts of rainfall are 0.1 (Mojave), 0.19 (Reno), 0.17 (Sahara).

Step2: Order from greatest to least

The order is \(0.19>0.17 > 0.1\), so Reno > Sahara > Mojave.

Step1: Choose two numbers greater than 32.56

Let's choose 33 and 34.

Step2: Calculate the difference

\(34 - 33=1\).

Answer:

2.28 mm
