Answer: 1.4 f or
1f +(4f)/(10)

Explanation:

Since, According to the question,

The snowfall in February in Delphine's house had = f cm

Again according to the question,

In March, Delphine's house had 40% more snowfall than in February.

Therefore, The snowfall in March in Delphine's house had = 140% of The snowfall in February in Delphine's house had

= 140 % of f

=
(f* 140)/(100)

= 1.4 f cm

= 1 f + 0.4 f

=
1 f + (4f)/(10) cm
