Answer 2

Answer:

If the February snowfall is valued as fs, the snowfall in March with an additional 40% could be expressed as:

• March snowfall = 1.4fs

Step-by-step explanation:

In the exercise it is mentioned that the snowfall in March was 40% higher than in February, if you wanted to express it in a mathematical function it could be mentioned that:

• March snowfall = February snowfall (fs) + 40% of February snowfall.

What could be represented as:

• March snowfall = fs + 0.4fs

When calculating we would obtain:

• March snowfall = 1.4fs
