To calculate rainfall per hour in a 24 hour period of constant rainfall, you divide the total rainfall by the number of hours. In this case, 178.8 cm divided by 24 hours equals 7.45 cm per hour. ;

The calculation of rainfall per hour over a 24-hour period with a total of 178.8 cm of rainfall results in an average of 7.45 cm per hour. This is determined by dividing the total rainfall by the number of hours. Thus, each hour received the same amount of rainfall steadily throughout the day.
