Erin measures 3/4 inches of snowfall. It snows more at the end of the day. Now there are 3 and 1/4 inches of snow. How many more inches of snow fell

Subtract the (3/4) in from the 3 1/4 in

Change 3 1/4 to an improper fraction first
13/4 - 3/4 = 10/4 = 2.5 in

3 inches because 3/4 + 1/4 = 1 therefore it would be 3 inches fell
