Since Mr. Jimerson records the amount of snowfall that the local area recieves, recording the following data: 12 am-1am: 0.3 inches | 1 am-2am: 0.8 inches | 2 am-3am: 1.36 inches | 3 am-4am: 2.019, if the total amount of snowfall at 7am is 7.8 inches, to determine how much snow fell between 4 am-7am the following calculation must be performed:
7.8 - 2.019 = X
5.781 = X
Therefore, since the amount of snow accumulated at 7 am was 7.8 inches, the snowfall between 4 and 7 am was 5.781 inches.
