Answer:

April

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the average number of rainy days in Seattle , Washington is is listed below:

Month        Rainy days

January         18

February        16

March              17

April                 14

We have to find which month's rainy day total would be different from the others when the data was only accurate to the tens place.

In January, there are 18 rainy days

One's place=8

Tens place=1

8 is greater than 5 therefore 1 will be added to tens place  and unit place replace by zero.

Then, the number is 20.

In February

Rainy days=16

Unit place=6

Tens place=1

The unit place  is 6 which is greater than 5 .Therefore , 1 will be added to tens place and unit place will be replace by zero.

Then , the rainy days=20

In, March

Rainy days=17

Unit place=7

Tens place=1

Unit place is 7 greater than 5 .Therefore,1 will be added to tens place and unit place replace by zero.

Then, the rainy days=20

In April,

Rainy days=14

Unit place=4

Tens place=1

Unit place is less than 5.Therefore, tens place remain same and unit place replace by zero.

Then, the rainy days=10

Hence, the rainy day total of month April is different from the others.

Answer:April
