Question

Charlotte is happy because it has snowed in her town for three straight

Answer 1

Answer:

10.989

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an addition problem. We can, first, set up all our decimals in a vertical setup:

          ₁

$+\left\begin{array}{cccc}4.&3.&5&9\\3.&5&6\\3.&0&7\end{array}\right$

_______________

 1 0  .  9  8   9

We get 9 for the first row because we are adding 9 + 0.

For the next row, we are adding 5 + 6 + 7.

We can break this up into 5 + 5 + 1 + 7.

Since that's just 10 + 8, our answer is 18. We carry the 1 and write the 8 .

For the third row, we can add 1 + 3 + 5 + 0. This is equivalent to 9 + 0, so our answer will be carrying a leaving a 9 in the open spot.

For our final row, we have a decimal, so we will be placing a dot.

For our numbers, we have + 4 + 3 + 3. This is 6 + 4 + , which is 10.

Since this is our last row, we do not carry, but write the number as it is.

Our answer is 10.989.

Answer 2

You just have to add each amount of snow to figure out the total. This will get you 10.989
