To find the difference in rainfall between June and July, we need to take the rainfall amounts into account.
In June, the rainfall was 2.3 inches above normal, and in July, it was 1.2 inches below normal. To find the total difference, we can add the two values together:
1. Start with June’s rainfall above normal:
- June: +2.3 inches
2. July’s rainfall is below normal, so we treat it as a negative value:
- July: -1.2 inches
Now, we calculate the total difference:
\[
\text{Difference} = 2.3 - (-1.2) = 2.3 + 1.2 = 3.5 \text{ inches}
\]
Thus, the difference in rainfall between June and July is **3.5 inches**.
