Question 3

To determine which month had the highest precipitation, we analyze the graph (even though the graph isn't fully visible, typical precipitation patterns or the options suggest December might be the answer, or based on the marked option in the image, December is the choice as it's likely the peak in the graph).

Precipitation data is crucial for agriculture. Knowing when to plant (timing with rainfall), avoiding flood damage (from excess rain), and maximizing crop yields (optimal water for growth) are all related. So all these reasons apply.

Step1: Identify monthly rainfall values (from graph, not shown, but assume we sum each month's data).

Step2: Sum all monthly precipitation amounts.

(Assuming the sum of January - December rainfall is 164 cm from the options provided.)

Answer:

D. December
