On Monday, it snowed a total of 15 inches. On Tuesday and Wednesday, it snowed an additional 4 1/2 inches and 6 3/4 inches, respectively. A weather forcaster says that over the last three days, it snowed over 2 1/2 feet. Is this a valid claim?

It is not a valid claim, because those three measurements only add up to 2.1875.
