Gael · Answer 1

20 days were rainy.

2:3=x:30

2/3=x/30

x=20

Kash Kim · Answer 2

(30 / (2+3)) 2=12

So there were 12 rainy days in April.

check ...

If there are 2:3, rainy to non-rainy there are 5 equal parts of magnitude: 30/5=6

So each part is equal to 6. So 6*2=12 rainy days and 6*3=18 non-rainy days.
