Question

On Monday it snowed 9 inches. The next day it snowed one half that amount. How much did it snow on the second day?

Answer 1

All you have to do is, 9 in ( for the first day) / 2 ( to represent the half amount) so now , we know that 2*1= 2 , 2*4= 8, so 2 * 1/2 = 4.5 in. is how much it snowed the 2nd day.

Answer 2

The next day it snowed 4.5 inches
