If I know the precipitation of rain in a region will be A mm for 6 hours, then how can I calculate the average drops of rain per second for a square meter?

Thank you.

Without knowing the rain type/size of drop and volume of water per drop I don't think you'd be able to.

Supposing the average rain type, size and volume of water per drop?

Do we know how many m^3 is the volume of an average drop?
