Question

The amount of snow on the ground increased by 4 inches between 1 p.m. and 6 p.m. What integer represents the amount of snow that fell during those five hours?

Answer 1

Answer:

The snow from each event melts off before the next accumulation and no snow is on the ground at your scheduled time of observation. The total snowfall for that reporting 24-hour day is the sum of the three separate snow squalls, 6.7 inches, even though the snow depth on your board at observation time was zero. Snow often melts as it lands. your welcome!
